Oh Maccers....

Macbeth is a tragedy is the most defined form, and for this I have to enjoy it because it's to the book. Macbeth is the poor tragic character and for that I pity him a little. However, having a crazy wife whisper crazy things about killing people in your ear can't hide your own ambition. Although Lady Macbeth is the reason Macbeth is able disregard his morals and lose his integrity, it is his own ambition that brings his end. Macbeth is a character that can define hubris. I liked Macbeth because it is very human. Although the supernatural is a recurring theme in the play, Macbeth's progression to someone who has lost all morals is all human. Ambition is a human response and with Macbeth it becomes evident that we all must watch how much ambition dominates our existence.
