How could you contrast Lady Macduff (not Lady Macbeth) from "Macbeth" and Caroline Beautfort (Victor's mother) in "Frankenstein". for example, Lady Macbeth and Elizabeth represent immoral vs moral. what two contrasts could i use to describe Lady Macduff and Caroline. I know Lady Macduff doesn't really show any bad personality traits but is there anything I could say about her? Thanks.

Lady MacDuff isn't really a character.

Take the high road. Make an argument that Lady Mcduff's limited character is hardly worthy of comparison. Perhaps your teacher would admire your ability to think out side the box.

Suggest how Lady macduff's character might have developed further, and whether she'd be similar to whattynotty.

she's an innocent, caught up and destroyed in the power struggle.
