Ambition in Macbeth by William ShakespeareAt the beginning of the play, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth seem very happy; it seems they have everything they need, Macbeth was the Thane of Glamis and they had a good relationship. The catalyst for change between Macbeth and his wife occurs when Macbeth learns of his fate from the three witches; he now believes himself capable of greater things. Once he becomes the Thane of Cawdor, he tells LadyMacbeth and the seed is sown for the plot against the king. Macbeth realizes that the king must be deposed so that he can obtain the throne, but it is Lady Macbeth who plots how this will happen and is ultimately the driving force. It is clear that Macbet and Lady Macbeth have the greed to want more and would take desperate measures to get what they want. When Macbeth first encountered the witches, he was clearly not amused and chose to do nothing with their predictions, "to be king is not within reach." of belief.” He says here that he does not believe he can become king, but when he arrives at Duncan's palace in Forres, he is informed of his new role as Thane of Cawdor, which puts him in a new state of thinking. If the witches were telling the truth about him becoming Thane of Cawdor, then perhaps it was possible for him to become king. He then comes up with the original idea of ​​killing the king only for his benefit so that he can take the throne. Macbeth is the sole initiator of the plot, he realizes that it might be a long time before the king dies and this poisons his brain to the point of thinking that If he murdered the king it might speed up the whole process . He has the intentions but...... middle of paper...... uh, that I can pour my spirit into your ear and punish with the valor of my tongue everything that prevents you from getting out of the circle gold, whose help destiny and metaphysics seem to have crowned you. In conclusion, I think Lady Macbeth is the most ambitious because she seems to be the most cunning, she plans ahead, she manipulates Macbeth in his moments of doubt, and she seems devious and ruthless in her pursuit of the crown. Macbeth is the puppet and LadyMacbeth is the puppeteer, an example of this is when she persuades Macbeth to commit the murder of King Duncan. He kills the king, covers his body and plants the evidence on the king's servants, while Lady Macbeth waits for news. She is clearly the brains and strongest person in the partnership and is therefore the most ambitious..
