The Characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth

Ah...our third and final blog for Macbeth.  Now that you've finished the play, evaluate either Macbeth or Lady Macbeth's character.  What type of person was he/she at the beginning of the play?  How was he/she at the end?  In what ways did his/her character change and how much affect did the sin have on his/her life?  Hypothesize what he/she could have done differently to avoid distruction and when in the play he/she should have done it.  Also write a personal response--what did you learn from the character and his/her trials?  Spiritually (from a Christian viewpoint), how could you avoid their pitfalls? 




Here's the last we see of Lady Macbeth.  As you watch it, think about how much her character has changed since the beginning of the play.  How much has sin in her life affected her?
