In the Shakespearean play, the attitude of Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] may be described best as ingratiatingor opportunistic. Macbeth creates a favorable impression when readers and viewers first meet him in Act 1 Scene 3. But then the impression undoubtedly is affected by the previous scene's glowing references to Macbeth's bravery, loyalty and nobility. Macbeth seems respectful towards his sovereign. But he can't sustain that attitude. The reasons are his on-the-job performance in the best way possible and his consequent expectation of recognition and reward from a sovereign who may not have been known to share. And so very quickly, readers and viewers see the raging ambition and the susceptibility to manipulation by the wrong people, such as the three witches and Lady Macbeth [b. c. 1015].
