Lady Macbeth and MAcbeth are both equally responsible for the death of king Duncan. They both played their own parts and neither one is more innocent in the murder then the other.
Lady Macbeth played a part in the death of the king by being very manipulative and controlling her husband. Lady Macbeth manipulates her husband by putting his manhood into question. Lady Macbeth does this by telling him that¨When [he] drust do it, then [he] were a man¨(1.7. 49). By telling a man he is only a man if he does something it adds some pressure to them, especially if it is coming from that man's wife. He wanted to be the man his wife wanted him to be, and she knew this would help her effort to change her husbands mind. Macbeth still has a lot of concern. …show more content…
Macbeth is very easily influenced, especially when it comes to his wife. He wanted her to think of him as a man. He also wanted to be the one to give his wife what she wanted, which was the crown. After his wife admitted she would only think of him as a man if he did what it took to become kind, he said right away he will do what it takes to be a real man. He responded to his wife by saying, ¨I dare do all that may become a man;/who dares do more is none¨(1.7. 46-47). This was the first casinerio it was very obvious he was going to be easily influenced by his wife, and could possibly follow through with the murder his wife wanted him to commit. The next time it is obvious him being influenced was just as terrible as her influencing such an act, was when he committed the crime. It is very obvious after he was not at all satisfied with what he did. He felt ashamed right away. He expresses that,“[He] am afraid to think what [he] have done;/Look on’t again, [he] dare not(2.2. 55-56). This made it obvious that Macbeth being very impressionable was just as much of a cause as Lady Macbeth trying to pressure him into murdering Duncan. He regretted it a lot and knew his life would never be good again. It is a very hard thing for him to try to live
