1)Desire For Power “Fill me from the crown to the toe top full of dirset cruelty”
“Unsex me here” She want to be a man, so she can be stronger.
She wants to be a man so she can be strong enough and brave enough to kill King Duncan. She needs the power to kill him.
She doesn’t want to kill Duncan herself as it was not the kind of thing that women would do.

Hello Zeeshan,
Why not research the role of women at this time and make a presentation on it to the class? I find it really interesting to think about the two types of women shown in this text – we are either given the villainous and manipulative Lady Macbeth or the witches – there are no positive representations of women. Why is that?
