The two main characters in Shakespeares play, Macbeth, are Macbeth himself and his wife Lady Macbeth. The breakdown of both characters is revealed through their soliloquies. In Macbeths first soliloquy you see an apprehensive Macbeth first starting to contemplate killing King Duncan. The thought of murdering his King, or indeed anyone, fills him with horror, and it would be for this reason that he writes to Lady Macbeth, seeking her evil support. ...
In the third soliloquy Macbeth is imagining a dagger covered in blood pointing the way to Duncans chamber. ... Macbeth has given up on life, and recognizes that he really does not have much left in the way of loyal subjects, friends, or honour as a king, and decides to go out fighting, as he thinks that the evil spirits are protecting him.
