邪恶的帮凶——试析《麦克白》中的麦克白夫人及班柯

A Brief Analysis of Lady Macbeth and Banquo

在《麦克白》中,麦克白夫人对于麦克白行为的挑唆作用往往被刻意夸大,而班柯对于麦克白的影响力却往往被忽视。试从麦克白夫人恶毒的言语,脆弱的内心角度来解释她作为一个妻子给丈夫给予的情感帮助,而从班柯的看似大义凛然的外表,其下包藏的险恶的用心来分析他对于麦克白恶行所实际产生的作用。

Though Lady Macbeth was always considered as Macbeth＇ s vicious instigator of his atrocious plans, she was actually a wife who was in deep love with her husband and believed the best way to fulfill her love was to help her husband to translate his e- vil desire into action. On the contrary, Banquo, appeared to be very honest and loyal, but purposely concealed the witches＇ predic- tions and his intention to become ＂the root and father of many kings＂, was also a regicidal conspirator.
