What are some good themes for Macduff in the play Macbethdoing a character profile on Macduff and need ideas on themes for the character. Or...

The Real Hero in Macbeth  
MacDuff



Some people are just
meant to be heroes. In this wonderful play by Shakespeare Macduff is a good choice and
born to be a hero. Throughout Macbeth there are several examples of Macduffs heroism and
bravery. Macduff is a loving, caring man of action, Thane of Fife and a Scottish
nobleman hostile to Macbeth href="http://www.123helpme.com/search.asp?text=macbeth"/>'s kingship. When he leaves
his loving family to flee to England to join Malcolm, Macbeth hasMacduff's wife and
children murdered. At the end of the play, Macduff (who was born through a caesarian
section) kills Macbeth bringing prosperity back to Scotland, and proving the truth in
the witches prophecy that "no man of woman born" can harm Macbeth and his true heroism.

Macduff ends up putting his country ahead of his family, whom he
loves dearly when he quickly decides to flee to England. Macduff made the hardest
decision of his life and a decision he had to make to bring prosperity back to
Scotland.Lady Macduff href="http://www.123helpme.com/search.asp?text=lady+macduff"/> questions her
husband’s wisdom as she sees no reason for him to leave his family and home behind.
"Wisdom! To leave his wife, to leave his babes, his mansion and his titles in a place
from where himself does fly?" Lady Macduff yells in question. Although fleeing to
England to Malcom’s side was a very questionable decision, there was no doubt in
Macduff’s mind of what had to be done.

Madduff is a man of action
rather than a man of words. There are several occasions where Macduff acts on his
thoughts rather than sitting down and talking about it showing his courage, passion and
bravery. Macduff left his family whom he loves dearly, and fled without words to
England. "My voice is in my sword, thou bloodier villain than terms can give thee out!,"
Macduff yells his savage rage, and beheads Macbeth in the final wager of battle. Macduff
is truly the hero in this magnificent piece by Shakespeare as he takes the head of
Macbeth for Scotland.

Macduff is a Scottish nobleman who was hostile
to Macbeth’s kingship and defeats Macbeth and claims his head in the name of Scotland,
"Hail, king! For thou so art" macduff yells with Macbeth’s head in hand, showing his
loyalty to Scotland and the new born king. Macduff is a true man of action with his
swift sword and brave heart. Macduff was born a hero in Scotland for
Scotland.
