Loyalty loyal play suggests complex conflicted concept character

Text	The play suggests loyalty is a complex and conflicted concept. Who could be said to be the most loyal character (and who are they loyal to) and why? Macduff with regards to his loyalty to virtue. He provides us with a narrative for the increasing tyranny of both Macbeth the individual, but also as a representative of the state- whilst LM presents such a drastic show of loyalty, her loss of direction later on highlights The danger of misplaced loyalty- or loyalty for poor cause. Both purpose and person! Macduff’s dialogue with Malcom serves to prove he is loyal to what is honest and right. LM, on the other hand, demonstrates nothing but desire for the throne and ambition that is equal to that of her husband.
