As time went on, this mistrust grew larger and larger to the point of rebellion in the form of mutiny. Macbeth was killed and the people around him no longer viewed it as a tragedy because Macbeth had given into the darkness. There were many forces that influenced Macbeth’s decision to commit his evil deeds. In the beginning, Macbeth’s only force that dictated his actions was the love for his country. He was a
His core belief throughout his whole life is “A man without land is nothing (2)”. As a result, he lets his goals of wealth get in the way of many friendships, such as that with Virgil. Similarily, Macbeth lets his desire to be the most powerful get in the way of many relationships within the novel. He truly believes in the witches prophecy that “Fair is foul and foul is fair (1.1.32)”. His sense of over-entitlement led him to be easily manipulated into killing his good friend and leader King Duncan.
His willingness to slaughter the man for so weak a reason is frightening though. It helps to show how twisted Chillingworth truly is. During the end of the novel though, Dimmesdale thwarts Chillingworth’s revenge plot by telling the Puritan community how he had an affair with Hester. This act absolutely ruins Chillingworth because he no longer possesses the power over Dimmesdale. All the horrible acts he had done in the past were undone, because Dimmesdale "Hast escaped me!"(228).
He explained that white men always win and cheat, so the white men are the victors but the white man is always a bad man. This shows that it can be prejudice because Tom`s story was not heard and he was accused of being guilty and so he was killed. In cases of Tom being wrongly accused, harassment by others, on Scout and Atticus defending the jail can have an opinion of people that is destructive. When the group of men came to kill Tom, it shows that if Scout and Jem did not have a father would be the same thing for Walter Cunningham.
The narrator in “Tell-Tale Heart” lost his composure after he murdered the old man, in contrast to when Rainsford murdered General Zaroff. After the narrator murders the old man and visitors come to the house, he still hears the heart of the old man beating. As he talks to the visitors, it seems to him that the heart beat gets louder and louder to the point where he loses self-control and admits to the deed. However, after Rainsford wins the most dangerous game he clearly keeps his serenity. Instead of showing any guilt, Rainsford actually seems to be more at peace after he pulls the trigger.
He has no men, no honor, no loyalty and no love. Instead of having these luxuries of a king, he has an overwhelming guilt – all because he killed Duncan. Macbeth realizes that since he performed many acts of evil, he will not receive good consequences but rather a life of sorrow and depression. On account of understanding what he did was unsound and evil, he accepts that he deserves these and therefore, is considered a classic tragic hero. With the death of Macbeth, William Shakespeare shows an insight of a perfect example of a classic tragic hero.
The main conflict begins when Victor's brother is murdered and is blamed on a Justine. Victor knows that his creation killed his brother but is too self-centered to say anything to anyone else. Victor says, "The tortures of the accused did not equal mine" (93). This shows that he thinks that his inner mind is more important then being hung and dieing.

Macbeth can be seen as a tragic figure, but he shouldn’t t be treated as a complete tragic figure. Although Macbeth does have our sympathy, he also has our bitterness. He killed King Duncan, Banquo and Macduff s family not only because of the circumstances, but also for the sake of his greed for honour and nobility. His greed caused his own country to be filled with fear, grief and unhappiness, which is personified in one of Malcolm s speeches that makes us feel the pain Scotland, is feeling: Malcolm: I think our country sinks beneath the yoke; It weeps, it bleeds, and each new day a gash Is added to her wounds. We feel sad for Macbeth s death, but we also feel happy that he was executed.
