Response to Evan
I agree with Evan's argument that Lady MacBeth seems to be the driving ambition behind her husband. At this stage in the play it seems as if she is the one who wants him to be king instead of MacBeth himself. Where MacBeth is on the fence, Lady Macbeth's mind is made up and it is her decisiveness that pushes MacBeth to murder. I agree that at this stage, she is very cunning and very dangerous. Evan, your prediction that Lady MacBeth shall become the all-powerful Queen may be a little ambitious, but as this play shows, ambition without a regard for ethical values can carry you far.
