Macbeth
The Murderous King
Who is to Blame?
It's quite obvious that the witches took part in Macbeth's downfall. Before Macbeth met the witches he was a nice, loyal knight. Even his wife wasn't crazy in the beginning, but after the witches showed up everything went crazy. The witches foreshadow that Macbeth would be thane of Cawdor,"All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor!"(Shakespeare 17) and then he would be king. After the witches go away, 2 people come up to Macbeth and tell him he is the Thane of Cawdor. Macbeth is shocked and believes he will soon be king. Macbeth sends a letter to his wife, telling her that he will be king. This makes her crazy, and tell Macbeth to kill the king, Duncan. Macbeth decides not to kill Duncan for the throne, "We will proceed no further in this business. He hath honored me of late..."(Shakespeare 43). However his wife forces him to kill the king. Macbeth, after killing Duncan, is announced king. Macbeth and his wife have a snowball effect of insanity. Macbeth kills a few more people, and lady Macbeth later dies from insanity. An army comes to kill Macbeth. Macbeth thinks he is invincible to the army out side his castle, for he was told he would not die from a man born of woman, "Macbeth kills young Siward, which restores his belief that he cannot be killed by any man born of a woman"(Shakespeare 175). Macbeth later is killed by one of the soldiers, because the soldier's mom had a C-section. So who is to blame? Why I thinks it's quite clear. The Witches are the cause of Macbeth's downfall.
