Macbeth / The Control of The Witches

Abstract: In 5 pages, the author argues the thesis that Macbeth in William Shakespeare's 'The Tragedy of Macbeth' is controlled by the witches. The question of whether or not Macbeth is independent in his thinking or whether he is controlled by witches is one that is cause for debate. Witches have long been thought to have power over mere mortals. If the witches did not control him, they did plant the seeds of ideas in his head, and this is what controlled Macbeth.
