Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1, 0, University of Duisburg-Essen (Anglophone Studies), course: A Survey of British Literature, language: English, abstract: How does Lady Macbeth promote Macbeth's plot? How does she manipulate other characters, especially her husband, and what is the aftermath? What effect does her behaviour have on herself? These questions will be answered in the examination of the role of Lady Macbeth.
Lady Macbeth sets up her plan immediately after having read Macbeth's letter in which he reports of three witches' prophecies of him being thane of Glamis, becoming thane of Cawdor and finally King. After the fulfilment of the first prophecy that Macbeth would become thane of Cawdor, it is no question for Lady Macbeth that her husband should and will become the King of Scotland. So she does not hesitate to take the decision to talk him into murdering the present King. The consequences of her decision and her following behaviour will be examined in this term paper.
