In the play Macbeth, we see how people are meant to play a role, and to be placed in an unnatural role (or placed into a role through unnatural means) is to have to eventually suffer the consequences. The main characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth serve as the greatest examples of this theme but many other characters serve as examples as well.
The character Macduff contrasts his role as the noble man he seems to be by fleeing to England without bringing his family along.

The initial thought is that in the moment Macbeth thinks he might be king that Duncan’s murder makes its first appearance in his mind. This is only assumed, and the idea is not...
