    How did a once normal woman turn into an invidious and manipulative person? In William Shakespeares’ Macbeth, Lady Macbeth’s manipulation is the catalyst that gets the story rolling. Her dominance over Macbeth illustrates the theme, gender equal power. By undermining his weaknesses and usurping his masculinity, Lady Macbeth effectively facilitates a shift in power; the masculine loses its domination as Macbeth falls prey to Lady’s Macbeth’s abusive ways. Her ruthlessness ultimately brings about both Macbeth’s downfall and his transformation into a monster as he resorts to violence to prove his masculinity. This manipulation is illustrated when Lady Macbeth coerces Macbeth to kill Duncan. This single event has collateral damage throughout the rest of the story finally causing Macbeth’s demise.…

    One would say that being bipolar in today’s society isn’t that bad of a mental disease, but when you throw that mental disease into the power of a potential king, you live on a day to day basis and never know what could happen in the blink of an eye. Bipolar Disorder is one of the oldest mental disorders and its symptoms have been molded by differing theories over time until it actually had its own classification. For many years, Bipolar Disorder was linked to Schizophrenia. The founder of this disorder, Francois Baillarger, was finally successful in separating the two disorders and Emeril Krapelin finally acclaimed the title "manic depression" in 1913.…

    Act I Scene VII in the play “Macbeth” by William Shakespeare shows Macbeth’s pondering over if he should kill King Duncan or not. We see that he has a conscience as he thinks about the consequences that may come with the killing of the King. We also see that Macbeth is very ambitious and Lady Macbeth knows that this is his weakness and tries to exploit this. Lady Macbeth is portrayed as being very masculine as she seem to be in control as she dominates the situation. Shakespeare uses emotive words to show Lady Macbeth’s irritation towards Macbeth’s hesitation and reluctance towards the assassination of Duncan. Shakespeare also uses strong imagery to show how Macbeth has a conscience and does not want to kill Duncan when Macbeth uses very innocent and delicate imageries to described the Duncan as a very good and generous king.…

    Macbeth is introduced in the play as a strong fighter on the battle field but shortly after turns into a soldier that is easily considered to be weak. When Macbeth is on the battlefield fighting against Norway he gains respect as a soldier because he shows qualities of a leader. “For brave Macbeth—well he deserves that name—Disdaining fortune, with his brandished steel, Which smoked with bloody execution, Like valor’s minion carved out his passage Till he faced the slave; Which ne'er shook hands, nor bade farewell to him, Till he unseamed him from the nave to th' chops, And fixed his head upon our battlements.(Shakespeare, Line 16).” In The beginning of the play it is easy to see how Macbeth could be seen as respectable, strong soldier because on the battlefield he fought hard and killed a lot of people. He put his life out for his king and his country and anyone who risks their own life for someone or something else demonstrates deep care. The play progresses when Macbeth is told by three witched that he could not be killed by someone who was born from a women which leads Macbeth to let his guard down from everyone, inferring that no man can kill him. Macbeth is shocked to find that Macduff is ripped out of his mother’s womb and is defeated by this information. “Accursèd be that tongue that tells me so, For it hath cowed my better part of man! And be these juggling fiends no more believed, that palter with us in a double sense, that keep the word of promise to our ear, And break it to our hope. I’ll not fight with thee (Line 17).” Because Macbeth’s ego got in the way of his values as a soldier, It led him to become weak to an opponent, who before it would have been easy to kill. The witches prophecies allowed him to trust that he would never be harmed by someone women born, not allowing him to accept the technicalities that not everyone was born through natural labor. From Beginning to End, Macbeth’s ambition allowed his strength as a soldier to weaken.…
