The Lord and Lady Macbeth - a pair to draw to
[ send me this paper ]
(5pp) When we met Macbeth with the witches we
hear with him...that "fair is foul and foul is
fair" (I i 10). Initially you can brush it off as
witch talk of rhymes and bubbles, but then when
looking at the characters of both Lord and Lady
Macbeth, and the things surrounding them you find
that those characterizations are indeed true. Both
of them are in the prime of their lives; they are
handsome, as the Scots go, and they have attained
wealth, success and power, those things that we
initially feel will make our lives complete, and
for a while they thought too their lives were
complete. They were "fair" indeed. Then as we
start to see them in action, with each other and
with their guests, we know that their fairness
covers a foul plot.
