Answer:
At the end of the play, Macbeth I had a couple of mixed feelings regarding the whole experience. For instance, I was disgusted but happy. Happy for the fact that such a character who killed so many people for the sake of becoming King, karma had treated him. But I was sympathetic with him as well, for he didn't know that he had gotten played. Finally disgusted with the greed and revenge that overtook so many people. That overtook such powerful characters that they wanted a massacre. I was angry at the fact that the witches were the one who started it all.
Explanation:
With reference to scenes, upon discovering that Macbeth had become the Thane of Cawdor, I was feeling anxious because I too knew that now Macbeth's heroic mind would turn around. Soon enough he turns towards treachery and murder.
I feel sympathetic at the end when he dies because that character was so "human". It had all the possible traits of a genuine human being, for instance the guilt he feels in Act 1 scene 7. He doubts himself and I like that about this character which is what made me sad when he died in the end. Because he had been driven to a place by those witches.
Explanation:
Macbeth is at first a man with good qualities and character. His character transforms from good to bad as the plot of the story develops. Macbeth is shown as a brave person, with a creative ambitious mind and is a kind-hearted person. Later, he becomes treacherous, evil and revengeful.
“The wages of sin are death.” These lines depict the truth that ultimately manifests in one way or another.
My attitude towards Macbeth, at the end of the story, is one of sympathy. I can only feel sympathy for a person who having been bestowed with such extreme good qualities, lets himself be taken over by mean and bad qualities and demeans himself.
All his extraordinary caliber has come to naught. Hence, I have only sympathy for him.
One may be able to hide all crimes from the public but cannot hide from one’s own conscience.
