Macbeth Analysis

Much like Richard the Third, Shakespeare shows us the downfall of the human mind and the conflicts that arise inside it. Macbeth is a noble man in the beginning of the novel but due to temptation and the coaxing words of those around him, he falls into the path of evil and eventually pays for his deeds by the hand of McDuff. In this play, unlike Richard the Third which displays a completely evil man, Shakespeare shows us the descent of a noble man into the place of an evil man. We are able to feel the struggle in which Macbeth goes through, trying to keep his dignity and also trying to advance in his life and become more wealthy.
