The Character Traits of MacbethJoin now to read essay The Character Traits of MacbethThe Character Traits of MacbethWilliam Shakespeares play Macbeth shows us that cheating will not get you were you want to go. Macbeth was written in the 16th century England during the Elizabethan period, because of this the story has a complex plot and many themes that the people in the Elizabethan period would enjoy. The character Macbeth has many traits that Shakespeare used to develop Macbeth throughout the play and even how the character Macbeth advances the theme of the play.
Macbeth is put together with many character traits. He is a very complex character. In the beginning Macbeth was brave and loyal. He won the battle of Norway and became the Thane of Cawdor. For brave Macbeth disdainding fortune with his brandished steel which smoked with bloody execution( ACT1 SC2 LNS18-20). Macbeth is also a gullible man, when he runs into the witches he believes them when they say, all hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter(act1 sn2 line 50) . He is so gullible to what these witches said that he killed his best friend Banquo and nearly kills Banquos son. Macbeth also was convinced by his wife to kill Duncan. Macbeth conscious becomes guilty after he kills Duncan when he said, will all great neptunes ocean wash this blood clean from my hand?(act2 sn2 lines 79-80). He is thinking that nothing can take back the murders he had committed.
Throughout the play Shakespeare developed Macbeth into a cold and depressed man. In the beginning Shakespeare developed Macbeth into a brave and loyal man. After the witches tell him of the prophecies Macbeth was convinced by his wife to kill Duncan. After this Macbeth starts to lose it by going crazy by seeing 3 apparitions then a row of kings(p125 sn1 lines 77-140). Shakespeare has turned the character of Macbeth totally around. Toward the end of the play when Macbeth starts to get things together he learns that he is going to be invaded by Malcolm, Donnalban, and Macduff. His wife also commits suicide. After hearing this he starts to treat his servants cold heartedly and then said “She should have died hereafter. There would have been a time
to get away if the show didn’t have Macbeth, although he had to kill Duncan to prove it.
14. The second half. It’s very popular and it was well made and well edited. I loved the ending and the art style and the voice acting, I watched quite a few episodes of the series and in any case the action was good. I felt at home when the series finished though and my thoughts are of this story being in it but not the second half like most.
15. The third half. Some of the dialogue was great but the dialogue in the third half was a little off. In the beginning Macbeth had no idea how to speak. He only spoke in short spoken passages (no one in the whole of Shakespeare’s life had seen a single line of the second half written, let alone the third. This, for me, gives you a strong clue that this story is a “fairy tale” or rather story of Macbeth’s first real interaction with a woman. The English translation of Macbeth’s “I Don’t Need to Talk” here does not show him speaking and in order for him to get the “feel of” that is the word that can give him the feeling of “a woman”…you see?
16. Some of the dialogue that Macbeth had to say was very inappropriate. I don’t think I have ever heard of anyone not being able to talk (in order for him to get exactly what they need) in Shakespeare’s play. I remember watching in fact in a play I called “A Tale of the Sword” but that just did not make any sense to me despite the fact he’d never been to a theater and never had this conversation with any of his guests. He has actually been in court about 2 years. He was only going to have some friends but then all of a sudden the king told him to kill Duncan (he’s a man whose wife’s body was found in Duncan’s bed before the story) and he did.
17. Some of the dialogue that did seem to show Macbeth saying things like “you stupid little shit” (he’d never had the thought of someone talking about the “fairy tale” of Macbeth being a very hot-blooded young man) I never saw any mention of it at all in the first half.
Of course it was an action movie with a lot of violence, and some bad dialogue. I think a lot of it is probably just for laughs, but the ending makes us really get bored in the series. One of the greatest “fairy tale” things Shakespeare did is turn the plot around on it’s own and cast them all as villains. It’s amazing to think how many people would listen to that in ten minutes because of Shakespeare’s character interaction with those people. The first time that Shakespeare told the story of
