‘He is complex, with both good and bad qualities’ is the right answer.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

In Shakespeare's famous tragedy 'Macbeth', Macbeth is the tragic hero. It is through him that Shakespeare creates the catharsis of the play. Since according to Aristotle, a tragic hero should have a blend of noble characteristics and tragic flaws Macbeth too is endowed with good and bad qualities.

When Macbeth sets out to murder Duncan he suffers from dilemma, a typical trait of tragic heroes. This is expressed through the famous dagger scene. Macbeth is a very valiant and dedicated Thane to King Duncan. At the same time he is over-ambitious. Thus he becomes a very complex character.
