This essay will focus on the gothic elements of Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’ written in 1606, which fully “displays the horror of regicide” due to the unnatural acts that take place throughout, such as; the witches prophecies, nature vs man and Lady Macbeth’s gothic influence. These act as a catalyst for the killing of both King Duncan and Macbeth. However, it could be argued that the main focus of the play is the protagonist’s fall into madness, because of the hamartia, ambition. Poole defines hamartia as “a fatal flaw; as if it were simply an attribute of character. On the other hand it can be argued that “others translate hamartia more simply as a ‘fault’, ‘mistake’ or ‘error’.
