In William Shakespe bes play Macbeth appearances are not what they seem. several(prenominal) people may change because they suppose that their neat self does not turmoil in society while others misrepresent to be something they are not. In the foundation of appearance versus naturalism Macbeth and Lady Macbeth assign one over an image but as the eon passes by their current personalities began to show. Macbeth portrays himself differently from his true inner self.He pret destinations to be a tough and intelligent person but from within he is weak and indecisive. When Macbeth first confronts the witches prophecies he says, Come what may, condemnation and the hour runs by means of the roughest day (1. 3. 152-153). Macbeth is leaving his future to observe. He wants to appear noble and absolu te but in the end he refutes his statement by sweep awaying Duncan and Banquo to corroborate to the throne.

His actions scene pungent but he does not deliver any reason to kill Duncan.Macbeth has a debate within himself to mutilate King Duncan or to spare his life. Macbeth distrust to kill Duncan proves in realty he is a weak man. Lady Macbeth represents herself as a beautiful and muscular woman in society but she is as weak as her husband Macbeth. To persuade Macbeth to follow the plan she says I have given suck, and know how tender tis to honor the babe that milks me. I would, while it was cheering in my face, have plucked my titty from his boneless gums and dashed the brains out, had I so sworn (1. 7. 54-58). Macbeth asks for her help, but she responds by organism harsh to him to keep up her appearances.Even when Macbeth sees Banquos ghost, instead of helping him, she tells him to go to hit the sack and stop imagining weird things. Lady Macbeth appears obdurate toward others. However, one night a gentlewomen and a doctor see her sleep argus-eyed and mumbling Out, damned spot Out, I say (5. 1. 25). She appears to be wide wind up but she is unconsciously revealing her true self. Her wickednessy conscious leads to her downfall with suicide. In this scene her appearance crumbles. She seemed powerful and unsympathetic, but in reality her guilt of Duncans murder driver her nutty proving she has become weak.In Macbeth the theme of appearance versus reality is shown through the characters of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. They both revealed a fictitious picture of their genius plain though on the inside they are different people. Macbeths indecisive personality leads to his destruction. The iron lady, Lady Macbeth appears to be a tough woman, who feels no guilt. But in the ending she shatte rs to pieces because of her guilt-ridden conscious. No effect what one appears to be reality bequeath defeat appearance. People can put disguise on reality for time being but in the end truth reveals itself.
