MEET MACBETH

Macbeth is introduced through indirect characterization because Shakespeare uses the slaughter by Macbeth to introduce him as ruthless and merciful, getting right to the point as to who Macbeth really is. The witches foreshadow Macbeth's ascension to the throne by murdering his fellow thanes and be sole ruler of his people. Shakespeare explains the exposition more aggressively by describing the actions of Macbeth rather than have some sort of build up, which in turn sets a tone for an even more twisted play than he ever did. Shakespeare towards Macbeth show that this will be a very violent and sadistic story and he conveys that by showing how savage Macbeth can be when need be. The main theme I believe that was shown through Macbeth was accomplish anything at all costs no matter how evil the intentions are.
