Macbeth Fate And Fate Analysis

Macduff and Malcolm go to war against Macbeth eager for revenge. Macduff, vengeful for his family’s death cuts off Macbeths head, and Malcom takes his rightful place as king. Macbeth’s Ambition and Greed resulted in his downfall. Constantly wanting more, Macbeth allowed his blind ambition to dictate what actions he took to obtain being king and staying king.

“The spring, the head, the fountain of your blood is stopped; the very source of it is stopped” (2.3.77-78). Macbeth murders the guards to prevent them from professing their innocence, affirming their intention to avenge the king in a fit of rage for his misdeeds. Duncan 's children; Malcolm and Donalbain, flee to England and Ireland, respectively, for fear that the killer of Duncan wishes the death of both also. Macbeth has killed Duncan who is his cousin. “Where we are, there’s daggers in men’s smiles.

This temptation for the crown fuels Macbeth’s ambition and thrusts him into unnecessary action, which ultimately leads to his downfall. Similarly, in The Crucible temptation is also present.

John Proctor is a character that is portrayed as an honest and good man, but he falls into temptation and sins. Abigail says to Proctor, “I know how you clutched my back behind your house and sweated like a stallion whenever I come near!

Shakespeare believes in destiny. In Macbeth one of the witches says, ¨All hail, Macbeth, thou shalt be king hereafter” (Shakespeare 51). Macbeth is given a prophecy that he will become king. It is his destiny that he can not change. Shakespeare also believes that people can control how they get to their destiny.

Macduff Watson 3 states “He’s already nam’d, and gone to scone,” (2.4.32) to Ross. All three prophesies have come true, showing that the witches prophesies are representing Macbeth’s fate. The Witches prophesies are true statements of Macbeth’s fate. Macbeth’s fate has been decided, by the Witches, as they know who he is and who he will become in the future. These prophesies provide evidence, showing that Macbeth’s fate was decided.

If a man told a lie, he will make more lies to make the situation looks true. Once a lie begins, it will never cease. That is, one lie leads to another. Macbeth and Scar probably are such, they murder their king to get the property of the country, but also have to kill more people to maintain this position. Macbeth killed Banquo, Macduff's son and wife, he tries to hide his evil plan under people's eyes.

Free Will over Fate in Macbeth This theory is obvious in a scene, where Macbeth is consciously deciding to kill king Duncan. In Act 1, Scene 3 he states: - “My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical, shakes so my single state of man that function, is smother’d in surmise, and nothing is, but what is not” (Macbeth 1.3.138-141). We observe his conscious unstable thought processes about contemplating and planning the murder of Duncan emerging shortly after hearing the prophecy, and before Lady Macbeth could hear the message and influence his decision.

(I,iii,68) this quote that the witches say is their prediction that Macbeth will be king but Banquo’s descendants will be granted King after Macbeth. This leads Macbeth to hire henchmen in order to take out Banquo and his son in order to keep his power above all. Another murder that Macbeth has done to prevent an uprising against him was when he killed Macduff’s family, he killed his family in order to prevent a revolt on him “Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth! beware Macduff, Beware the Thane of fire. Dismiss me.

Therefore, Macbeth is a greedy traitor who lies and kills in order to rule the land. Macbeth and Banquo, two generals of the king, have different attitudes for the king; Banquo supports the king and impresses him, while Macbeth murders the king to take his position. The expedition of my violent love outrun the pauser reason.

Then next chain of events he sends thugs to kill his best friend Banquo and He also ends up to kill Macduff’s whole family his kids and family. Just so, that he does not end up ruining Macbeth’s chances of being king. You start to see that Macbeth is starting to let power get to his head, it shifts his character drastically, and now you see him as ruthless and bloodthirsty. The play states that,” The castle of Macduff I will surprise, Seize upon Fife, give to the edge of the sword. His wife, His Babes, and all unfortunate souls” (150-152) (406).

In the case the Infernal Denizens v. Macbeth, Macbeth, former King of Scotland, is appealing to ascend into Purgatorio in the Infernal Court of Dis. The issue of the case is: does Macbeth have the right to go ascend into Purgatorio given the crimes he committed during his life? The prosecution’s argument is that Macbeth must be sentenced to the Inferno based on the crimes committed during his life because they amount to usurpation, overbounding tyranny, and unjustified killing. The prosecution’s case of the Infernal Denizens v. Macbeth has three distinct issues.

The downfall in the life of Macbeth is all his own fault despite the influence from Lady Macbeth and the three witches. As shown at the start of the play, Macbeth is a courageous warrior who won the battle for Scotland. With the impact of the three witches, Macbeth was fallen into deep, dark thoughts. Macbeth led himself to the downfall of his life. He was the hero, who fought in the war between Scotland and Norwegians and gain victory but eventually turned into a tragic hero.
