Macbeth Speech

Shakespeare, a name most of us dread to hear as it comes with complicated language, and slag from an era that most don't know about. Even though most people want to finish a Shakespeare book for a school assignment, we don't seem to realize how many times movies have used Shakespeare plays as an inspiration for their own.

Macbeth knows that if he kills Duncan, he gets the satisfaction in being king. Once Macbeth receives the position of “Thane of Cawdor” for his bravery so easily. “If chance will have me king, why, chance may crown me without my sir”(1.3.143-144). So he begins to think that since he received this higher position with doing nothing, then maybe doing nothing can crown him king. Although he was a very nice person, down deep he wanted to become king.

Macbeth come across the three witches, there they state, “All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor” (Act 1, Scene 3).

The climax of the play has already passed with Macbeth taking his first life, King Duncan.

The witches, Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, and other characters seem to act one way, whether it be good or evil, but their intentions are usually impure and meant to harm others in order to benefit themselves. Macbeth’s guilt is caused by the foul play the witches involve themselves in. If not for their prophecy, Macbeth would have never known of his fate and would have gained the kingship without involving murder, leading to his guilty conscious.

Shakespeare’ tragedy “The tragedy of Macbeth” also known as simple “Macbeth”, believed to have been written somewhere between 1599 and 1606, had some influence on a crime drama film “Men of Respect” (1990) directed by William Reilly. “Macbeth” is a play about Scottish general named Macbeth and his ambitions to become a king. Macbeth faces many obstacles preventing him from being king of Scotland which happen to be other characters in the play.

So Ladies and Gentlemen, grab your test tubes and light your Bunsen burners because I am about to drop some science.
