Author: William Shakespeare
Book Title: Macbeth
As you know, William Shakespeare worked during the reign of Red Bess – Queen Elizabeth I. But his work is not limited to this time frame. So, the tragedy “Macbeth” was written by him around 1606, three years after the death of the queen and the accession to the throne of King James I of England and Scotland, the son of the executed Scottish Queen Mary Stuart. We can say that the work based on a plot from the history of the “highlanders” appeared in accordance with the political situation. The play is rather short.
In the first act, three witches appear, assistants of Hecate herself – the ancient goddess of darkness, hell and witchcraft. In the Shakespearean era, treatises on demonology did not lose popularity, and the technique itself symbolizes inevitability, fate, fate. The transformation of the protagonist from a loyal servant of the king to a power-hungry killer is partly the fault of otherworldly forces, because of their prediction, interpreted by the hero too literally. The line in which supernatural creatures interfere so closely with the character’s behavior is not found anywhere else in Shakespeare, which emphasizes the folkloric flavor of the play. And this interaction with evil spirits, multiplied by the self-confidence caused by previous military exploits, revealed in Macbeth a beginning similar to animal aggression. It is not for nothing that he utters the phrase “and only the beast is capable of more.” The words of his wife, Lady Macbeth, only reinforce this feeling in him. She insists that the husband must act in full obedience to his wishes. And, committing the murder of Duncan, the protagonist does not doubt that he is doing what he should, he perceives the atrocity as some kind of his duty, similar to the military deed.

The transformation of the protagonist from a loyal servant of the king to a power-hungry killer is partly the fault of otherworldly forces, because of their prediction, interpreted by the hero too literally.
Another victim of Macbeth was Banquo, the legendary ancestor of the House of Stuarts, whose ghost at a feast predicts the death of the commander and causes in that vision where one of the eight kings, just James I, holds a triple scepter, symbolizing power over three lands: England, Scotland and Ireland. This culminating scene, in my opinion, not only shows Macbeth’s alienation from the others (only he sees a ghost), but also echoes the famous biblical legend about Belshazzar’s feast, which tells us that the king, who cheerfully celebrated the death of his father, was punished. And the parallel is not accidental – the hero is soon overtaken by retribution. Having gone mad, Lady Macbeth commits suicide, and he himself is tormented by anxiety. A crown so coveted does not bring happiness. In addition, Macduff, the head of one of the regions, whose family fell at the hands of Macbeth, and Malcolm, the son of the murdered Duncan, are uniting against him, leading the uprising. At first, Macbeth is not afraid of Macduff, who went to him, as he believes the words “none of those who are born a woman will harm you.” But he replied that “I was plucked out of my mother’s womb with a knife” and cuts off the head of the murderer of his relatives. The rightful heir, Malcolm, becomes the king.
After reading Macbeth, I experienced a kind of catharsis. This great tragedy makes one think about the nature of man, about the motives of his actions, about good and evil.
I am sure it will not leave anyone indifferent, so I definitely recommend that you familiarize yourself with it. It won’t be boring – that’s for sure.
