Revisiting Today's Journal Topic


I believe that the author may be deceiving us in what type of ruler that Macbeth may be. Although Macbeth is seen as this horrible man who is a murderer, which is true, there is going to be a plot twist and Macbeth is going to be a great ruler. This is a possibility because of Macbeth's character that was presented in the beginning of the story. In the beginning of the story Macbeth was the sane one and knew that killing the King was not even an option, but when Lady Macbeth convinced him he changed a lot. This shows that when he finally becomes King he will return to his normal ways of being a sane and good person. This also has to do with the fact that Lady Macbeth is dead and can no longer pressure him into doing evil things. 
When I answer this question myself, I think that Macbeth will be a power hungry ruler that is very corrupt. I have a lot of evidence to support this because of all the evil things that Macbeth has done and crimes he has committed just to become King. But because Shakespeare is a writer with creativity and something that will be studied forever, I believe there is evidence that supports a plot twist in how Macbeth will rule the country. This is shown through lines from the beginning of the play.
