Abstract
William Shakespeare is one of the greatest play-writes of the English Literature. The reason why Shakespeare is considered as one of the biggest writers of English Literature is that he has written sonnets that appeal to so many people around the world. Besides writing sonnets, he has also written comedies, historical plays and tragedies. His plays are acted out in many different countries and in many different languages. Though Macbeth is one of the shortest plays of Shakespeare, it may be considered as one of his masterpieces. Macbeth is a tragedy about fear, ambition, lust for power and guilt. The main theme of the play, “thou shall not kill”, is projected to the reader by these themes. It asks the question, as many other of Shakespearian tragedies, if there is any goodness left in the character that has turned evil, and is there any hope for the county that has been ruled by an evil dictator. This extended essay is based on the role of manipulation and fate on life and how it affects the actions that one does. In order to accomplish this, I have chosen the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare since the protagonist in the play, Macbeth, is under the influence of his wife. Manipulation is the issue covered in the essay and the consequences of manipulation are also stated as the play focuses on the results of Macbeth’s actions.
