Macbeth
|
|
|
|
Fear, this motivates us to do many things no matter if they are right
|
|
or wrong. In the play Macbeth it was fear that was the main motivating
|
|
factor that influenced the outcome of the play. This can be proved by the
|
|
subsequent murders that followed after Duncan's, why were these committed?
|
|
Because Macbeth was scared of being caught and having to pay for the wrongs
|
|
he had done. Also look at Lady Macbeth, he constant washing of her hands,
|
|
sleepwalking and other behaviour like this. All done out of fear, and like
|
|
her husband fear of being caught. The final piece of proof I offer is
|
|
Macbeth's actions, they were all due to fear, not only of being caught but
|
|
of the witches' prophecies, he was scared of them coming true and tried to
|
|
stop them from happening. This whole play was inspired by fear and what it
|
|
and do to a person.
|
|
|
|
To begin, we'll address Macbeth's subsequent murders, following
|
|
Duncan's. For Macbeth, he's just killed the King of Scotland and blamed it
|
|
on his son. It worked and he became King, however he remembered the
|
|
witches' prophecies. They claimed that Macbeth would be King, but it would
|
|
be Banquo's children that would follow after him. This made Macbeth very
|
|
angry, he risked everything to become King and after him none of his family
|
|
will follow.
|
|
|
|
Only for them; and mine eternal jewel
|
|
Given to the common enemy of man,
|
|
To make them kings, the seeds of Banquo kings!
|
|
[Act III, S I, L 72-75]
|
|
|
|
Here Macbeth realizes that if something is not done to Banquo, then his
|
|
sons will become King. Macbeth can't have this, he's already worried that
|
|
his soul will go to hell for what he's already done. His fear become
|
|
evident in this scene also, "But to be safely thus: our fears in Banquo
|
|
Stick deep;" [Act III, S I, L 53-54] Macbeth then has Banquo murdered,
|
|
however his son Fleance escapes in the attack. Next Macduff refuses to
|
|
accept Macbeth as king and flees to England to join Malcom. And also the
|
|
witches tell him to beware of Macduff, which angers Macbeth and drives him
|
|
to kill Macduff's family. More fear of losing the impending battle with
|
|
England, makes Macbeth start doing anything that will give him an edge in
|
|
the final battle. Macbeth's fear is starting to consume him, he can no
|
|
longer sleep and is ravaged by guilt over what he's done.
|
|
|
|
As well Lady Macbeth is being comsumed by fear and guilt, she is
|
|
slowing losing her sanity. This is a result of her not being able to
|
|
handle what she has done to Duncan. As shown in this quote
|
|
|
|
Out, damned spot!out,I say!One;Two:why,
|
|
then 'tis time to do't. Hell is murky. Fie, my lord,
|
|
fie! a soldier and afeard? What need we fear who knows
|
|
it, when none can call our power to account?
|
|
[Act V, S I, L 32-35]
|
|
|
|
Here Lady Macbeth is trying to wash out what she sees as being blood on her
|
|
hands. As well she mentions hell an obvious fear of going there for what
|
|
she has done. At the start Lady Macbeth was the one pushing on Macbeth to
|
|
kill Duncan but as the play goes on she becomes weaker as Macbeth becomes
|
|
stronger, Macbeth isn't troubled by what he has done to the extent Lady
|
|
Macbeth is. Her role in the play slowly becomes smaller and smaller as she
|
|
ends up being driven mad by the guilt and soon can no longer take, and ends
|
|
up taking her own life hoping that her torment will end now that she is
|
|
dead. "The Queen, my Lord is dead" [Act V, S 5, L 18], Lady Macbeth takes
|
|
her life right before the battle against the english is about to begin.
|
|
This taking of her own life demonstrates her fear and in the end what that
|
|
fear can do to a person.
|
|
|
|
Now we come to the witches prophecies, these are a main source of fear
|
|
for Macbeth, after all where has he learned everything from. With each new
|
|
vision, Macbeth falls deeper and deeper into an evil spiral. From the
|
|
witches first prediction of Macbeth being king, which made Macbeth kill to
|
|
become king. As well as Banquo's children becoming kings, this scared
|
|
Macbeth as I previously mentioned. Also when he went back to see the
|
|
witches he gained some more knowledge, "Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth! beware
|
|
Macduff; Beware the thane of Fife." [Act IV, S I, L 77], well now that
|
|
Macbeth has heard this, he believes that he must kill Macduff, however he
|
|
learns that Macduff has fled to England, so Macbeth desides to kill his
|
|
family. Next in the cave Macbeth is told he can't be killed by any man
|
|
born of woman, well this gives him confidence that no matter what the
|
|
English will not defeat him. And he is also told that he will not be
|
|
defeated until the trees of Birnam Wood move towards his castle. He has
|
|
put all his faith in these prophecies, what the witches say must be true
|
|
because of the first prediction.
|
|
|
|
In conclusion you can see what fear can do to a person, it made
|
|
Macbeth mad for power which he ended up getting. But after the first of
|
|
his crimes the rest became easier for him, pretty soon he'd just order it
|
|
and not think twice. That was not the case when he first murdered Duncan.
|
|
All though the play his fear of being caught, and the witches prophecies
|
|
coming true make him do all these evil deeds. Fear had become the main
|
|
movating factor in the play. Hopefully you have a better understanding of
|
|
the play from all this.
