In conclusion Macbeth is a perfect example of a tragic hero. He was very courageous and yet a single, tiny character flaw caused him to die. What is interesting about the tragic hero is the small problems that cause his end. It is like David fighting Goliath. Shakespeare does a good job building up Macbeth and them driving him down with ambition that he can’t really control.
