macbeth character change

overall change throughout the play

AT THE START OF THE PLAY...

Is loyal and submissive to Duncan:
"For brave Macbeth, well he deserves that name","valiant","carving out his passage"
Highly skilled soldier, this braveness could perhaps foreshadow how he will be brave enough to usurp the crown and 'o'rleap' his place in society.
The fact he is "carving" his passage reflects how he is killing several people on the battlefield implying his bravery on battle but it also foreshadows how he will murder several people later on in the play to get what he wants (just like how he kills several people on the battlefield to sustain victory).
Links to how he is called "butcher king" at the end of the play.

"My dearest partner in greatness"

Macbeth's ambition and lady macbeth

"Stars hide your fires let not light see my black and deep desires"-"deep" before the witches,before LM,ingrained in his mind.
"I have no spur to prick the sides of my intent just vaulting ambition which o'rleaps itself and falls on the other"
He relies on Lady Macbeth for advice at this moment in the play and for her to persuade him to kill Duncan.
He wants to murder Duncan as a means to compensate for the fact that he has no children (that is his insecurity) .Shakespeare is perhaps subtly criticising gender roles in the Jacobean Era.
"Look like the innocent flower but be the serpent under't".Perhaps uses LM as a tool to kill Duncan and then uses her techniques of emasculation to murder Banquo without her.

is ambition macbeth's hamartia (fatal flaw)?

"My dearest partner in gretness"

"I am in blood stepped in so far" -entered a life of killing people to perhaps maintain the throne.
Failed king ,everyone is against him Macduff refuses to attend his coronation instead goes to England.
Relies on the witches for advice -eager to maintain power,thinks he is invincible as 'none of woman born' can harm him.
Under him,Scotland is damned bad harvest "fruitless crown and barren sceptor"-17th century ,bad king as he is murdering poeple (goes from being "brave""noble" to "murderous" then to "tyrant"(objectification).His actions backfire as he used to dehumanise poeple to kill them."ripe"act 5 ,apparition 2nd child with tree in hand.
So perhaps his desensitisation to killing is his hamartaia.Thinks that violence is a trait of men ,toxic masculinity,leads to downfall in Shakespeare's plays.
