Modern Macbeths

Modern Day Parallels to Macbeth Shakespeare

Macbeth was a very greedy and unhappy man who was very susceptible to pressure. Everyone in todays modern world fits the Macbeth mold in one sense or another. There is not a living being that has never fallen prey to peer pressure, greed or jealousy.

Macbeth had always desired and dreamed of being King and ruling over the country. His wife wanted Macbeth to be King, therefore Macbeth wanted to rule even more. Lady Macbeth also craved to be the Queen of Scotland. The pressures that Lady Macbeth laid upon Macbeth were unmeasurable. Macbeth was constantly influenced by his wife.

Macbeth had many dreams and wishes of ruling over Scotland. He was a very ambitious man. His desires and visions of being King seemed possible and achievable. With the influences of his wife and the foresights of the three witches, Macbeth realized that his dreams could become reality. Selfishly, not thinking of others, Macbeth committed murder to become King. He killed Duncan, the King of Scotland. Macbeth was a very greedy and thoughtless person.

In a way, Macbeth could be classified as jealous. He was obviously a bit jealous of Duncan because Duncan had everything, including happiness.


Scar became King and enjoyed the time that he ruled very much, although none of the other animals had any respect for him. In the end of the story Simba returned to discover that Scar had killed his father. Scar was killed.

In the end of the story everyone loses respect for Macbeth and realizes that he was the one who killed Duncan. Macbeth was killed. This seems like a high price to pay just to be King. The strange thing is that Macbeth was filled with extreme guilt and sadness. He could not even enjoy his time of rulership.

Scar, from the "Lion King" also fits the Macbeth mold. Scar was very jealous of his brother Mufassa who was the King. Scar could only dream and wish of someday becoming ruler over the Pride Lands. If he ever did become King Scar knew that Mufassa and his son Simba would have to be out of the picture. Scar had many plans and tried many times to kill Simba, but it never worked. He finally came up with a plan that would kill both Mufassa and Simba. He planned that the two of them would be caught in the middle of a horrible stampede.

Why did he do it? Well, there may be many reasons. O.J. and Nicole were in the middle of a divorce. If the divorce would have been completed, O.J. would have to pay Nicole alimony. As O.J. is a very wealthy man, he pro
