Lady Macbeth

In William Shakespeare's, The Tragedy of Macbeth, Lady Macbeth is the dominator of the play. Lady Macbeth's character is not as crazy as her husband's but it’s just as dramatic. Lady Macbeth has a rich and fascinating combination of qualities. She is not an evil person without any feelings; her husband adores her, for example, "Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest chuck," (III, ii, 45). Macbeth also refers to Lady Macbeth as his dear partner. …showed first 75 words of 855 total…
