In Macbeth, Shakespeare focuses on the theme of nature and its right order. Everything in Macbeth contrasts with the natural order, from the setting of the play to the killing of Duncan. To achieve his goal of becoming king, Macbeth is filled with a dangerous ambition that drives him to commit the treacherous crime of killing Duncan in his sleep, a disturbance of nature itself. Since Macbeth has made himself an enemy of nature, the rest of the plot focuses on this ongoing struggle between the two until Macbeth's death. Shakespeare describes the importance of a natural order and the consequences that can arise from disrupting its logic. Macbeth is a vital character who was ultimately condemned because he violated nature and was later defeated by it. From the beginning, Shakespeare introduces three unnatural characters, The Weird Sisters. They are supernatural beings from an unknowing source and who “are supposed to be women” and “yet [their] beards” as with their other dark appearance leave a question of uncertainty regarding their gender (1.3, 39-42). These unnatural beings later meet Macbeth and greet him as the new king of Scotland. Immediately, Macbeth is filled with enormous ambition so much so that he asks himself “why did he give in to that suggestion […] against the use of nature?” (1.3, 134-137). He realized that the uncomfortable feeling of temptation stirring within him was unusual and felt compelled to complete the witches' prophecy. After much wailing and hesitation, Macbeth kills King Duncan in his sleep, his first act against nature's will. He had murdered “the innocent who sleeps” and as punishment “Macbeth will sleep no more” (2.2, 48-56). But Macbeth didn't just kill sleep. Inst... halfway down the paper... the ghost appeared and as Birnam Woods approached Dunsinane, he realized how wrong he had been. By killing Duncan, Macbeth had already unleashed a catastrophe in nature's systematic ways and it seems that nature has decided to play along. Macbeth had become, in a certain sense, unnatural. Therefore, with Macbeth's death, everything returned to normal with Malcolm as the rightful king in Macbeth's place. Nature had won its battle and, predictably, man had lost once again. Macduff may have killed Macbeth in technical terms, but in reality it was nature that truly killed him. He died in a desperate attempt to protect his destiny and win against nature, but he has reached his limits. Nature may be the only victor, and as seen in Macbeth's final fate, anyone who violates it would be led to the punishment of death. Humanity is too small to face such a big beast
