The Incredible Lady of MacbethIn the tragedy Macbeth by William Shakespeare, there are two main characters, one of which is more credible than the other. Lady Macbeth is not as realistic or realistic as her husband. In this essay, we will explore his character. In his book, On the Conception of Shakespearean Tragedy, HS Wilson describes the role of Lady Macbeth: Professor Kittredge used to point out to his classes that Lady Macbeth, in urging Macbeth to act, uses the three arguments that every woman , one day or another, uses to every husband: “You promised me you would!” “You would if you loved me!” “If I were a man, I would do it myself!” But Macbeth's decision is made by his assurance that they can do so safely by placing the guilt on Duncan's chamberlains. (72) LC Knights in the essay "Macbeth" describes the unnatural character of Lady Macbeth's words and actions: Thus, the feeling of the unnatural character of evil is evoked not only by repeated explicit references ("the misdeeds of nature", "nature seems dead", ""It is not natural, even like the act that was performed", and so on), but through the expression of unnatural feelings and a violence of unnatural tone in such things as Lady Macbeth's invocation of the "spirits" who will "unsex" her, and her assertion that she would kill the baby at her breast if she had sworn to do so. (95) Samuel Johnson in The Plays of Shakespeare highlights how the ambition of the protagonists leads to detestation on the part of the readers: The danger of ambition is well described; and I do not know whether we should not say, to defend certain parts which today seem improbable, that in Shakespeare's time, credulity had to be warned against vain and illusory predictions. Passions are directed towards their true purpose. Lady Macbeth is simply hated; and although Macbeth's courage retains a certain esteem, every reader rejoices at his fall. (133) In “Memoranda: Remarks on the Character of Lady Macbeth,” Sarah Siddons comments on the Lady's cold attitude: [Macbeth] announces the approach of the king; and she, insensible, it seems, to all the perils he encountered in the battle, and to all the happiness of his safe return to her, for she does not offer a single kind word of greeting or congratulations, is so entirely swallowed up by the horrible design that his letters undoubtedly suggested to him, such as having forgotten both.
