That would be an apt comparison, but no. He compares him to Jepthah, an Old Testament figure. Jepthah sacrificed his virgin daughter to God after accidentally promising to. The implication is that Hamlet is angry over Polonius's treatment of his daughter Ophelia.

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

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.


Re-Read Scene 5 lines 56-70 Compare the intensity of ambition displayed by Macbeth and Lady Macbeth Which one seems more likely to commit to a murderous plan?

Macbeth says hardly anything, and what he says he says without flowery poetry. Lady Macbeth is excited, enthusiastic, and poetic. Moreover, she is the one in charge. "You shall put this night's great business into my dispatch" she tells him. She is the one who has planned and intends to carry out the murder; Macbeth has evinced no such intent.
