The Tragedy Of Macbeth By William Shakespeare - 1441 Words

Consequences of Ambition In human nature, ambition is a character trait that is most often associated with heroic, strong-willed individuals. To dare to fulfill one’s deepest desires can be perceived as a wonderful characteristic to acquire, but it can result in both positive and negative consequences. In William Shakespeare’s play, The Tragedy of Macbeth, the tragic hero, Macbeth, is portrayed as a victim of his own ambition which leads him to ruins. A well-respected general in the Scottish army, Macbeth is originally considered a war hero in the eyes of the people. Upon his return to Scotland, he is greeted with a surprise visit from The Weird Sisters, three witches whom speak riddled prophecies regarding his future titles. When it†¦show more content†¦He frets over the evidence of his crime, instantly burdened by guilt and panic.

Following his hysteria of seeing the ghost of Banquo, the guests are dis missed from the Macbeths’ dinner celebration. Alone, he confides in his wife that he employs spies in the households of the other nobles due to his distrust of them. Macbeth states, â€Å"I hear it by the way, but I will send.

Our well being depends on a secure sense of belonging to a group The idea of belonging is an important and fundamental value in our lives. For humans as social creatures, belonging to a group provides a sense of security both physically and mentally. A group provides a framework of values, attitudes and rules that the individual can find a sense of security and comfort from when all share the same aspects of life. A sense of belonging therefore most commonly emerges from personal experience, concepts of identity, relationships, acceptance and understanding from interacting with the group. When there is no conflict between the members of the group, it creates a strong sense of security within the group.
