How do you compare Macbeth and Lady Macbeth in Macbeth with Romeo and Juliet as tragedy?

Answer 1

You would talk how they are both tragedies but in different ways. Romeo and Juliet died tragically as two star crossed lovers forced to do drastic things in order to be together because of an old family feud.

Macbeth centers around greed and paranoia and ultimately how this led to them going mad.

You could also compare the ways the characters die, and the murders that take place. There are a lot of similarities there besides the fact that they are both Tragedies.

Answer 2

In "Macbeth," both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth succumb to ambition and commit immoral acts to achieve power, leading to their downfall. In contrast, Romeo and Juliet's tragedy is driven by their impulsive love and the feud between their families. Both plays explore the consequences of unchecked passion and ambition, but in different contexts.
