    overconfidence. The first of Macbeth's characteristics that contribute to his deterioration is his vaulting ambition. The first instance in which Macbeth displays this quality is when he murders Duncan in order to become king, as prophesied by the three witches. “For them the gracious Duncan have I murder'd; Put rancours in the vessel of my peace Only for them; and mine eternal jewel Given to the common enemy of man.”(3.1.70-74) The new title, saying of Glamis, was not enough for Macbeth.

Even so, Macbeth’s resolve to carry out this crime is shaky at best. Once his wife gets into his ear, however, that shaky resolution is ever so slowly strengthened. Lady Macbeth begins her work by…

    manipulation. Through her words, she influences and transforms Macbeth’s thoughts and actions so that it helps him gain power. Similarly, she appeals to her husband’s greed and is able to use his greed to demand more power. Some might say that the Three Witches’ insight to Macbeth’s future sparks his longing for power, but without his wife’s manipulation, he would not get very far.

    What a mistake. Since the development of Joe leads more and more to a man seeking revenge not vaulting ambition. With the arrival of the ‘witches’: garbage men which clearly leaves to the lack of spirituality which was represented in the play. Seriously did screenwriter Peter Moffat read the play?

    Leadership presents itself in funny ways. It is not always at the hand of a king that the unwavering bravery of leadership is seen. Sometimes the most powerful leaders are not leading people, but instead leading by example. Shakespeare’s Macbeth is a perfect example of this. Macbeth, though brave, was not a good leader by any standards but his own. The Macbeths might not have have been the best leaders, but a man by the name of James Barry and his friends certainly were. So how do these two…
