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.

What part does lady Macbeth play in Macbeth decision to kill the king?

Her part is decisive. If you read or watch Act 1 Scene 7 you will know that Macbeth, left on his own, decided not to commit the murder. He says "We shall proceed no further in this business." Lady Macbeth then proceeds to change his mind, at least for long enough that the deed gets done. She appeals to his irrational emotions, when his decision not to commit the murder was based on reason and logic, as shown in Macbeth's speech, "If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well it were done quickly."

Did Lady Macbeth have any children?

Yes, Lady Macbeth (b. c. 1015) had children. No child actually made an appearance in the Shakespearean play. But Macbeth's Lady referred to a child, in Act 1 Scene 7 Lines 54-55.That reference was indeed accurate, according to genealogical and historical records. Gruoch ingen Boite was married twice. Her first husband was Gille Coemgain (d. 1032), who may have been responsible for the murder of Macbeth's father, Findlaech mac Ruaidri (d. 1020). From that first marriage, she had at least one known child, Lulach macGille Coemgain.Gruoch then took as her second husband Macbeth (c. 1014-August 15, 1057), and came to be called Gruoch, Lady Macbeth. She had no known children from her second marriage. As Queen Gruoch's only child and son, the subsequent King Lulach (d. March 17, 1058) therefore succeeded his stepfather, Macbeth, as King of Scotland.


What was Lady Macbeth's opinion of her husband and what was her plan to help him after reading his letter?

Lady Macbeth [b. c. 1015] thought that her husband was too nice and that he needed a murder to take place in order for his glorious royal plans to be realized. In Act 1 Scene 5 of the Shakespearean play, Macbeth's Lady read his letter about the last-minute decision of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] to spend the night, and about the witchly predictions of noble and royal career moves for the Macbeths. She feared her husband's preference for the straight and narrow way would delay or even prevent their becoming King and Queen of Scotland. She planned to help him by creating a job that needed to be filled with the current monarch's murder.
