Lady Macbeth is very ambitious woman.....Ambitious, is hardly the traits
that is used to describe a woman in those days...... She is willing to do
anything to achieve her ambition... Since, she is a woman; she needs a man to
fulfil her dream... Thus, her husband , Macbeth the man who gave her, his
name... the man who makes her a person....who gave her identity.......will be
the one who will fulfil all of her dream.....The line below is the prove of her
ambitiousness :
The raven himself
is hoarse
That croaks the
fatal entrance of Duncan
Under my
battlements. Come, you spirits
That tend on
mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from
the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst
cruelty. Make thick my blood.
Stop up the
access and passage to remorse,
That no
compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell
purpose, nor keep peace between
The effect and
it! Come to my woman’s breasts,
And take my milk
for gall, you murd'ring ministers,
Wherever in your
sightless substances
You wait on
nature’s mischief. Come, thick night,
And pall thee in
the dunnest smoke of hell,
That my keen
knife see not the wound it makes,
Nor heaven peep
through the blanket of the dark
To cry “Hold,
hold!”- LADY MACBETH
Base on the lines, we know that she is willing to shut down her humanity
part in order to achieve her ambition....
