<span>Hmmm my very favourite Shakespearian play and I have toured as a techie with this one, so I know it well.
Macbeth is a warm soul, but with ambition. We can all identify with that
one. However, when the witches promise him the kingdom, he is amazed
that he could get that far and discusses it with his beloved Lady. SHE
is the one who manipulates him and changes him.
Inside all of us, we have superstition and ambition. However, he is
gullible too and listens to Lady Macbeth ... although he knows it is
wrong, she convinces him that murdering the king is the right thing to
do. So he does....but panics, that is when we see Lady Mac in her real
light, she covers for him and makes certain the deed cannot be traced
back to him. She is the real villain here although she later looses her
mind due to the weight of what she has done and the fact that she has
lost her soul mate.
In doing all this she convinces her husband that he is wonderful and he
becomes power mad.... nothing can touch him and his atrocities mount,
but there is this nagging guilt that he fights to override at the
detriment of his mental health and this marriage.
Eventually he goes mad with guilt and greed for power....and whilst he
is convinced the witches warning can never come true...he is so sure of
himself, but he gets it wrong.
We all get these things wrong sometimes, we are all talked into things we shouldn’t do, and get it wrong and feel guilty.
Yes, we can all identify and in a strange way sympathize with Macbeth.
He was led astray by the witches and his wife...and then once he
believed them and was controlled by them, he became truly power hungry.

Answer:
<u>D. a central character whose trustworthiness the reader is invited to doubt</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
We can make such a conclusion because <em>the narrator</em> in the passage isn't speaking from the point of view who knows about the community's history and practices. But is open to doubts from his readers.
