How important are the 3 witches in building up Macbeth as the tragic hero?
The witches don't make Macbeth perform any dark acts, such as killing King Duncan; they just put the idea in his head. The witches tell Macbeth he is the Thane of Cawdor (which he doesn't know yet) and also tell him that he will be king. Once Macbeth finds out he is in fact the Thane of Cawdor, he begins to believe the witches' prophecies. Lady Macbeth convinces him that the only way Macbeth can be king is by killing King Duncan, and he does so. The witches' role in making Macbeth a tragic hero is to serve a catalyst for Macbeth's dark thoughts.
