Detailed explanation-1: -In Shakespeare’s “Macbeth”, the protagonist is a monster due to the murders he committed, wanting power, and refusing to surrender for his crimes. Firstly, the protagonist of the play is a monster due to the murders he committed. Throughout the play, we encounter that he has killed Duncan for power, Banquo and more.
Detailed explanation-2: -“Macbeth is not a monster, rather, he is a man, perhaps more inclined to evil than most men, but still a man who is tempted, succumbs to temptation and pays the price for his weakness.” The quote given wraps up the entire play of Macbeth in 35 words.
Detailed explanation-3: -So Lady Macbeth stands as one of literature’s most monstrous female characters and as such she has to be punished. Her demise is both pitiful and ironic.
Detailed explanation-4: -In Macbeth we do not have literal monsters; there are no dragons, no cobbled together, and reanimated psuedo-humans. Instead, we have Macbeth himself, a human who commits acts that are characterized as monstrous.
Detailed explanation-5: -He also reveals that he intends to have his son Malcolm succeed him on the throne, which throws Macbeth for a bit of a loop. He privately ponders his growing desire to kill Duncan so that he can grab the throne for himself.
