Macbeth

Macbeth follows a Scottish general whose ambition, spurred by prophecy and manipulation, leads him to murder, tyranny, and eventual ruin. Shakespeare masterfully explores themes of power, fate, guilt, and moral decay. The psychological depth and poetic force of the tragedy have made it a cornerstone of literature. Its iconic characters and dramatic tension have inspired endless adaptations. Macbeth’s descent into madness remains one of the most gripping portrayals of moral collapse.
