Idalmis Betsabe Perez February 12, 2013 Mrs. Southard Macbeth By: William Shakespeare Macbeth is a play written by William Shakespeare in which he shows us how an ambitious man and woman can get a person to take somebody?s life. Macbeth is the king?s cousin thane of Glamis and thane of Cawdor. Macbeth at first is like a hero. A person who fought wars for others, for his country, for his King. On the way of doing good he met three witches that give Macbeth and general Banquo prophesy that makes Macbeth and his wife a little more ambitious and crazy than what they already are. Although Macbeth and Lady Macbeth were the ones who killed the King I believe the three witches are the one to blame.
