Corrupting Influence
In the tradgity "Macbeth" there are many examples of corruption. When Macbeth became Thane of Cowdor his wife, Lady Macbeth, was very delighted to hear of such news. And when hearing that Duncan, the king ,would be coming to dinner at their castle, gave her an idea that maybe they need a new king, Macbeth! This is a perfect example of corruption, as soon as she became more powerful, she was lusting for more. As play carries on the corruption becomes greater with the killing of Banquo. Banquo who was a friend of Macbeth is betrayed when Macbeth, the new king, orders him to be killed only because Banquo has a son named Fleance that Macbeth stupidly believes will take the throne away from him,"To make them kings, the seeds of Banquo kings!" This of course get the people suspicious, but now it's to late, Macbeth had gone crazy as well as Lady Macbeth. Of course then when your in power sometimes you think nothing will happen that will hurt you in any way, that your safe in the confinment of your office or room. Of course this never works and theres always some terrible thing bound to happen to you. And that"s exactly what happens to Macbeth. All of this killing could've been avoided if Lady Macbeth hand't pushed Macbeth into killing Duncan in the first place, I beleive it was all her fault, being Thane of Cowdor just wasen't good enough she had to be the most powerful person in Scotland under the king, Macbeth. She was greedy for more. What happens in the end was the death of Macbeth. He was brutally killed by Macduf, the commander in chief of the english army set out to retake Scotland. He was motivated by the killings of his family, in which Macbeth had killed. What I write here is the many problems with corruption and what hasen't been done to aviod it. Macbeth was an example of many problems that go on in the world today. There's always that deception you makes you believe everything is alright but that's never
