Lady Macbeth was stronger in handling the situation, expressing almost no emotions over what her husband did. As Macbeth was expressing the faults of his responsibilities, Lady Macbeth comforts him by saying, “Consider it not so deeply.” (2.2.41) and “These deeds must not be thought / After these ways; so, it will make us mad.” (2.2.44-45), reassuring Macbeth with lack of care, not to fret over what he has done. Macbeth cannot bare what he had just done, however, showing clear signs of anxiety and guilt, as he says, “Methought, I heard a voice cry, “Sleep no more! / Macbeth does murder sleep” –the innocent sleep”
Throughout the plot, she transforms from a courageous woman, to a rash murderer, and finally leading to a guilt-driven suicide. Strong-minded, fearless, and intellectually powerful are just a few of the terms that can be used to describe Lady Macbeth at the beginning. She was the mastermind behind the killing of Duncan, which led to the downfall of Macbeth as well. Her cunning plan to end the king’s life was nearly flawless; she had planned how to frame someone else for the deed and composed the perfect alibi. This plan triggers understanding of her intellectual level, which is far higher than where the other characters of the play expect her to be.
Lady Macbeth states that “The sleeping and the dead/ Are but as pictures” (2.2.56, 57). Lady Macbeth is emotionless because she feels that death and sleep are exactly the same. She tries to convince Macbeth that murder is not as great of a sin as he thinks it is. Lady Macbeth feels no remorse in her and Macbeth’s actions due to her greedy and cruel personality. In addition, Lady Macbeth proves that she is more rational than Macbeth.
However they do have differences in their voice. The creature is afraid and lacks of confidence whereas Lady Macbeth is very confident and is not afraid of her actions even knowing the consequences. Both Mary shelly and Shakespeare create determined voices in Lady Macbeth and the creature. In act one scene seven, Lady Macbeth questions Macbeth and says ‘we fail’ showing her confidence that they will not fail. Lady Macbeth refuses to accept failure; she already has a plan in order to kill Duncan.
He doesn’t understand Edna’s true feelings and emotions and really doesn’t make any effort to try. Because of this it can be seen how Edna is dissatisfied with her husband. This is apparent in the first scene when Leonce calls her to come to bed and she refuses him. This is her first act of defiance that eventually leads to more. For example, Edna speaks of her promiscuity to Robert and says “I suppose this is what you would call unwomanly; but I have got into the habit of expressing myself.
She now sleepwalks and always has a delusional belief that she has blood on her hands. “Out, damned spot…who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?” she says as she sleepwalks (5.1.37-42). Lady Macbeth believes that nothing can wash away her blood and even more so her evil deeds. Although she had previously told Macbeth after Duncan’s death that he can just wash away the deed, those words have now come to haunt her since she herself cannot “wash them away”. Furthermore, Macbeth’s evil actions have caused him to no longer have feelings.
Very silly choice if you ask me’. She is very different to other parents because normal parents will complement their child even though they were horrible but Gwen instantly lists all the negatives factors of the play and say Meg was terrible. Gwen’s continuous nagging creates a barrier between her and Meg which Gwen is not able to get out of her domestic world. Furthermore, when Gwen was complaining to Jim that she did not have her keys, Jim tries to convince Gwen that he does not have the key but she tips all the contents of her handbag on the floor which shows she is in a very irrational nature. Gwen has a tendency to repeat a lot of words in order to get a message across which also can show anxiety, especially when she says ‘No.
In the early 17th Century Shakespeare wrote a play named Macbeth, in this era men are described as Powerful and women are described as week. Macbeth is presented as strong and masculine but is controlled by his wife, Lady Macbeth. She is seen to subvert female gender stereotypes as she convinces Macbeth to murder the king and famously rids herself of her femininity. Lady MacBeth is evil, tempting and witch-like, through out the play. However, during the play we see her in two different ways.
Which is not an excuse at all, but now it makes more sense why she gets into trouble connected with witchcraft and involves the girls in it. The further we read the play, the more we get to know Abigail's personality. She accuses everybody, but not herself. The only thought on her mind is how to get Proctor's love. She does not feel sorry for anybody.
For example my grandmother has diabetes and she sometimes lies about how she feel. My grandmother lie and says that she is ok with being a diabetic and that she does not feel no pain when her sugar goes up. My grandmother later went into a stroke because she was so stress and she really did not like being a diabetic because she sometimes misses the desserts she use to eat. When a person does not tell the truth that means that they are holding in their true emotions, which can cause stress and can kill people but if they are honest about their situation and vent it can help decrease high blood pressure which has a high death
