Big Idea: Power

In Macbeth so far, I have noticed that "power" is something that is valued most. We talked about it at the beginning of the play, and I have really noticed that power as effected a majority of people in the play. We first see the thirst for power when Macbeth kills King Duncan. He does this primely because he wants to have power in being King.

Another time I noticed a thirst for "power" was when Macbeth thought of Banquo and his family as a threat. This thrive for power led Macbeth to kill his good friend Banquo and to try to kill to his son Fleance. It is surprising to me how much one person who do to have so much power. Overall, I think that the play is mostly about conquering power, and that having that power is the big idea.
