Yet, as the play progresses, Macbeth is corrupted by the lure of ambition and power.

Macbeth/The Witches
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page essay that examines the role of the witches in Macbeth. Shakespeare is never explicit as to how the audience should perceive the role of the witches. It is not clear if the witches are independent agents who toy with human lives, or agents of fate, or do their prophecies simply report the inevitable conclusions of actions already begun. Furthermore, it is not clear if Shakespeare intends for the witches to even be perceived as real or as symbolically representations of the evil that already lurks within Macbeth's heart. Examination of the play demonstrates that there is considerable evidence for seeing the witches as being primarily symbolic. In other words, the role that they serve is to provide insight into Macbeth's psychological state of mind. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
