In Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” the reoccurring theme of “Fair is Foul and Foul is Fair” is demonstrated in all of the characters of Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, and the three witches. The World was often said to be black and white, good and evil but what if it appears to be black when it really is not black? In the play of Macbeth, William Shakespeare seems to be obsessed with the idea of mistaken appearances of “what is fair is foul, and what is foul is fair.” There were many things that would seem to be a contradiction. This is the plot that is driven throughout the play’s action and it can be seen to be a part of nearly all facets of the play’s construction. The idea is always that what appears to be good, may in fact be evil and what appears to be evil, may actually be good. In the characters of Macbeth, Shakespeare demonstrates that they each have two different sides to them, an outward public personality and an inward less obvious side.
