Bobbi
The Weekend Guest It was late December. Snowflakes were gently falling to the ground as I waited for Lady Macbeth’s plane to arrive in Kelowna. The fresh blanket of snow that covered the runway glistened in the light. I was so excited but also very nervous that my boss picked me to entertain Lady Macbeth for the entire weekend. Lady Macbeth was first to get off the plane and I greeted her with a smile and a friendly hug. “How was the flight?” I questioned. “It was crammed, there were way too many people and I am very jetlagged.” She replied. “We have a short drive before we reach the resort. When we get there, you may go straight to your room to sleep, if you wish.” Lady M is one of my boss’s very important clients; she is a big deal to the company’s new clothing line. She designed many of the new evening gowns, which we had a fashion show for this weekend. I had to make sure Lady M had a stress-free visit and she felt at home during her stay. My boss booked the weekend for us at Sparkling Hills Resort in Vernon, BC. It was very fancy and I myself was very excited to be able to stay there and use the amazing amenities that they offered. As the limo pulled up to the front entrance of Sparkling Hills, I watched Lady M’s eyes light up and the scowl on her face turned into a small grin. I sighed with relief. “Bobbi, this place looks absolutely beautiful. I love it!” shrieked Lady Macbeth. “Just wait until you see your suite!” I replied. Lady M and I quickly grabbed our purses and went inside to check the place out. It was already nine o’clock and I could tell that Lady M was very tired and needed to get some rest. “Here is your room key, you are in suite 402. I will meet you in the café downstairs for breakfast at ten o’clock. Does that sound okay?” I ask. Lady Macbeth kindly replied with “Thank you that sounds perfect. See you at ten! “ At breakfast we each had a veggie omelette with a glass of orange juice. Lady Macbeth

    This essay will attempt to explore what the play ‘Macbeth’ suggests about the states of minds of both the titular character Macbeth, and his scheming wife Lady Macbeth, using extracts from Act 1, Scene 7. I will also examine how the language used emphasises the key themes and ideas within the play. The characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are revealed and developed through their dialogues with use of soliloquies and asides, helping to reveal their personalities, states of mind, emotions and motivation. Much figurative language and imagery is used by Shakespeare to emphasise the themes within the play, creating atmosphere and mood in order to achieve dramatic outcome (109). Initially eager to have the deed done, he would have it done sooner rather than later and hope for the murder to be the finish of it all:…

    “Of all Shakespeare's female characters Lady Macbeth stands out far beyond the rest — remarkable for her ambition, strength of will, cruelty, and dissimulation” (Traits of Lady). Lady Macbeth is usually viewed as an interesting character because of her notable traits. Her cruelty, cunning, and manipulation certainly contribute to one’s fascination with her. However, equally intriguing are Lady Macbeth’s notorious views she possesses. The unyielding views Lady Macbeth holds on manhood, womanhood, and guilt greatly affect her life.…

    Despite Macbeth seeming noble and courageous towards the court, I, as a reader, am knowledgeable of his true feelings and do not feel sympathetic towards him. He does not fulfill the definitions of a sympathetic literary character that I carry in my mind, as he is aware and in control of his evil intentions and actions. In Act I, Macbeth’s initial reaction to the prophecy is murder, and his eventual commitment to the act showcases his true character as a murderous but independent…

    The timeless play, Macbeth, centers around themes of power, guilt, insanity, magic and revenge. The main character, Macbeth, although once brave and loyal, slowly goes insane in his attempt to achieve power. Macbeth's character, along with his wife, Lady Macbeth, go through dramatic changes; they fall into the dark abyss of their own deeds and lead themselves into hell. Each incident on this path of darkness, relates to seeing the blood of their victims. To Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, seeing blood meant the end to all rational sanity and marked their beginnings as ruthless murderers unable to work past their guilt and paranoia. I explore how blood represents a mental inability for the Macbeths to escape from their evil deeds of cold blooded…
