In the medieval setting of the drama, the lines between cruelty and masculinity, and kingship and tyranny, are blurred. Although aided by the predictions of the manipulative “weird sisters”, Macbeth crosses each line, setting himself up for failure. Both internal and external conflicts are present in the lives
