Conflict in Macbeth
Conflict is the clash of opposing forces, and without deviation t here is no drama, and the story would be less interesting. thither ar many important conflicts in Macbeth, like the conflict between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth, the conflict between the good which is correspond by Macduff and the evil which is represented by Macbeth, and Macbeth vs. himself, his inner struggle, and totally of those conflicts will lead to Macbeths down fall.The relationship between Lady Macbeth and Macbeth may seem like a health one at the beginning, further we quickly learned that there is a conflict between the two. Macbeth was not sure about murdering Duncan, but Lady Macbeth persuade him to murder him by saying was the hope drunk wherein you dressd yourself? Hath it slept since? And wakes it now, to look so green and pale at what it did so freely? From this snip such I account thy love. Art thou afeard to be the same in thine own act and valour as thou in desire?Wouldst thou have that which th ou esteemst the ornament of life, and live a coward in thine own esteem, letting I dare not hold upon I would, like the poor cat in the adage (1, 7, 38- 48) She tries to convince him by calling him a coward and unmanly. Macbeth is convinced enough to murder Duncan which then caused more than death and eventually his own down fall. Another conflict in the book is the conflict between Macduff and Macbeth. They dont really have a problem with each other at the beginning, but things changed when Macduff Fled to England.Macbeth then decided to murder Macduffs wife and son. After Macduff got the news that his wife and son are murdered by Macbeth he said O, I could play the woman with mine eyes, and braggart with my tongue But , gentle heavens, cut short all intermission front to front, bring thou this fiend of Scotland and myself within my swords length set him if he scape, heaven forgive him too. (4, 3, 267- 274) Macduff is saying that he will get revenge on Macbeth, this eventually l ed to Macbeths down fall because Macduff is the only one that can kill him.Another conflict in the book is Macbeths inner struggle. He struggles at making tough decisions like whether to kill Duncan or not. He knew the pros and cons for murdering Duncan and In act 1 scene 7 line 1 to 28 he said if it were done, when tis done, the twere well it were done quickly if the assassination could trammel up the consequence, and catch, with his surcease, success that but this blow might be the be-all and the end-all here, but here, upon this bank and shoal of time, wed jump the life to come.But in these cases, we still have judgment here that we but teach bloody instructions, which being taught return to plague the inventor. (1, 7, 1-28) this quote reveals that he is afraid that the deed will eventually come back to frequent him, it suggests the Macbeth is aware of how the murder would lead him to darkness, and he admits that his only reason for committing murder is ambition. With the influ ence of Lady Macbeth, he decided to murder Duncan and by the end of the book, we knew that he made the wrong choice.
