How is Macbeth a tragic hero?

  • I am writing an essay over Macbeth. I have to give 3 examples of Macbeth being dignified/noble, tragic flaw, and downfall.

  • Answer:

    Nobility: Macbeth fought honorably for Duncan against the invading forces at the beginning of Act I. He is noted for his bravery on the battlefield which is why Duncan makes him Thane of Cawdor. His tragic flaw is that he allows his wife to manipulate his ambitious desires. His downfall is when he turns his back on honor and murders his king.
