This paper reviews William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and in particular, analyzes how the character of Macbeth goes from being
a brave loyal
soldier to a murderer by the end of the play. It looks at how Macbeth is loyal to the King and serves his country as a soldier, not like the Thane of Cawdor. It also examines how at the start of the play Macbeth is ambitious, brave, superstitious and dedicated to his wife and how he becomes cruel and deceitful from the influence of Lady Macbeth. It explores the events that show this change i.e. the murders Macbeth commits, his intentional revisit to the
witches and his response to his wife's death.
