Two women could never be more different, Lady Macbeth and Miranda. However, some of their attributes are similar. Lady Macbeth is a woman of action, always wanting the best; even for her husband. In the play Macbeth, there is a lot of conflict and death. There are the three witches, who are the catalysts for Macbeth's downfall. They prophesied to him: “Hail everyone, Macbeth! Hello, Thane of Glamis! Thane of Cawdor! From now on you will be king! » (Act 1 sc. 3 line 50-54 Macbeth). He kills King Duncan, for his throne; kill Banquo, his children will reign; The Macduff family, for a warning; and he commits suicide. “Common evil – the most common type – can arise directly from unconsciousness” (Keller). Metaphorically, killing his loved ones eventually came back to kill him. Then there's the question of Tempest. A wizard and his daughter stuck on an island because of betrayal and a greed for power. This is a revenge play in its sweetest form. Prospero's daughter, Miranda, falls in love with Ferdinand; him with her. Using this pairing as a way to get revenge on his brother, Alonso, and Ferdinand's father. The comparison is with Lady Macbeth and Miranda. There are some contrasts and comparisons with Lady Macbeth and Miranda; they both care a lot about their partners, one is too weak and the other is perfect, and Miranda is the woman who prospers while Lady Macbeth dies by her own hands.

Alas, now, I beg you, do not work so hard: I wish the lightning… 'He cries for having tired you' (act 3 sc.1 line 20 Tempest). Miranda is immensely in love with Ferdinan...... middle of paper ......use. The endings of these two plays are very different; like black and white. Macbeth ends as a tragedy; Lady Macbeth, Macbeth, Banquo, Duncan and the Macduff family all die. In Tempest there are no tragedies, there are conflicts but in the end a new life will begin. “At first glance, Shakespeare's play The Tempest seems to end in the triumph of reconciliation and order” (Stutton). In conclusion, they both care a lot about their other half, one is too weak and the other is right, and Miranda is there a woman who prospers while Lady Macbeth dies by her own hands; these are some contrasts and comparisons. These women are strong and it wouldn't be surprising if some modern day women look up to these two. Strong-hearted and weak-willed, Lady Macbeth was similar to Miranda in only a few specific ways.
