During the beginning of the play Lady Macbeth receives a letter from Macbeth talking about his visit to the three weird sisters, who told him that he would become king, making Macbeth think he should kill the current king (Duncan).

Lady Macbeth is shown to be manipulative, when she believes that Macbeth is too kind hearted to kill Duncan, Macbeth is told to "Look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under't."

This suggests that Lady Macbeth is controlling because Macbeth was not wanting to continue with the murder of Duncan but she is telling him to act nice but continue with the murder.

Lady Macbeth is characterised as being heartless.

Macbeth was beginning to have second thoughts about killing Duncan, so Lady Macbeth tries to convince him to do it.

"I would, Have plucked my nipple from its boneless gums and dashed the brains out, had I so sworn as you."

The idea of her killing a baby makes her appear so much more callous because a baby is possibly the most innocent thing in the world and one of the most vulnerable forms of life.

Throughout the middle of the play Lady Macbeth is helping Macbeth to kill Duncan (the king at the time), so that Macbeth can become king.

Macbeth is second thinking what he is about to do so Lady Macbeth states, "Had he not resembled my father as he slept, I had done't."

This shows that Lady Macbeth does have morals no matter how small because she clearly cares for her father so she does not feel like she can kill Duncan because it would feel to much like she is killing her father.

Lady Macbeth is characterised as evil.

To prevent Macbeth from getting caught comiting Duncan's murder Lady Macbeth spikes his guards' drinks causing them to fall unconscious "That which hath made them drunk hath made me bold."

This shows that Lady Macbeth is wicked because she not only does not try to stop Macbeth from killing Duncan she aids him in it as well.

After Macbeth killed Duncan, lady Macbeth framed the guards by smearing the bloody knife on them while they where unconscious. "A little water cleans us of this deed." suggests that she feels no remorse for her actions because she balives that the consequences of such a heinous act can be washed away with something as simple as water.

The last part of the play shows Macbeth's and Lady Macbeth's reaction to the guilt and paranoia, ultimately leading to Lady Macbeth suicide.

"All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand."

Lady Macbeth's emotional state changes at the end of the play, this is shown when she is sleep walking and asks to herself, "what, will these hands ne'er be clean." Links back to when she claimed that a little water could clear her hands from the deed. This shows how Lady Macbeth is growing increasingly remorseful.

Lady Macbeth is portrayed in a extremely negative light along with the majority of other women in the play, I believe that this is because of the sexism that existed at the time that it was written.

I find the women's names in the play very interesting, Lady Macbeth and Lady Macduff's names seam to be directly linked to their husbands names, wich perpetuates the common consensus at the time that a wife is the husbands property.
