Introduction
The work is based on the tragedy Macbeth written by Shakespeare around 1600 about the effects about the political ambition of the general Macbeth, he was a general and the thane of Glamis but he wants to be powerful, he wants to become the king. This work is about how was manipulated the general Macbeth by different characters until by their influence kills the king but he cannot tolerate the guilt and he starts acting like if he's going crazy. First Macbeth was manipulated by the witches, they told him that someday he would be king that’s words wake up a feeling in he, he began to desire the crown, he really wanted to be king but things were not like the prophecy so Macbeth killed the king so that the prophecy was fulfilled. Second, His wife helped him to kill the king and did not let him surrender, every time he tried to repent his appointment she forced him to continue telling him that he was a coward for not do it. And finally Macbeth was manipulated by his own feelings After killing the king and committing other horrible acts, Macbeth begins to go mad and this causes him to be very afraid to someone rebel against him and kill him, the fear makes him paranoid so that as the witches said to take care of Macduff the bush to his family, his fear controlled him.
Argument 1:
When Macbeth came from the war he met three strange beings who were women despite having a beard, these beings were witches, They told Macbeth that he had a great future and that he would be named thane of Cawdor, but also the witches told him that someday he would be king, Macbeth believed in the first statement, but was surprised with the second, Time later they announce to Macbeth that he was named thane of Cawdor, as he saw that the first part of the prophecy was fulfilled he began to desire the throne, however when he arrives in front of the king he realizes that the son of the king is named future king Macbeth gets angry, he believed in the prophecy of the witches but the new post of the son of Duncan took him away from the throne so that full of fury search a Way to become king and this was to kill Duncan and to blame the guards. All these actions on the part of Macbeth were only because he believed in the prophecy of the witches so the words of these manipulated him and made him kill his king who completely trusted him.
Macbeth saw the witches as very powerful beings and was fully confident in his words, so much so that when the king named Malcolm heir Macbeth was angry, he could not believe that something was against his destiny to become king, because of this supposed prophecy Macbeth kills Duncan to become the new king. Macbeth did terrible things based on his interpretation of the prophecies of the witches, as they said that Banquo's descent would be kings, Macbeth thought Banquo would betray him and he would stay the throne so he sends to kill him and his son. On another occasion as the witches said to take care of Macduff, Macbeth decided to kill him, however Macduff managed to escape but Macbeth killed his family just by predicting the witches. Witches guided Macbeth in most of his actions, without his predictions Macbeth probably would not have wanted the throne and would not have committed such ruthless acts
Macbeth said:
I don’t know how you know the things you do, but I insist that you answer my questions. I command you in the name of whatever dark powers you serve. I don’t care if you unleash violent winds that tear down churches, make the foamy waves overwhelm ships and send sailors to their deaths, flatten crops and trees, make castles fall down on their inhabitants' heads, make palaces and pyramids collapse, and mix up everything in nature. Tell me what I want to know.
Macbeth relies so much on the powers of witches that he asks them what is going to happen and what he should do now, he says that no matter what they do or who they serve, he just wants those beings to answer their questions to have an advantage over their enemies so that they cannot defeat him. He will obey what the witches say so that he is the winner, however the witches did not give clear messages
Argument 2
The king chose Malcolm as his heir, this annoys Macbeth a lot, since it was against the prophecy of witches, so he thought that it would be better to kill the king, he tells his wife and she supports him, However she took it more seriously. Macbeth's wife is a very rude woman, Macbeth himself says when Macbeth had to kill the king he faced a Problem, although in war could kill dozens of people, the ruthlessly attack to a person who trusted in him was much more difficult, at times Macbeth tried to surrender however his wife did not leave him, accused him of coward in not being able to do what He proposed, also insulted his masculinity and insisted in that he had to do it, even she said that even she could kill him.
