King Duncan is a fictional character in Shakespeare's Macbeth. He is the father of two youthful sons (Malcolm and Donalbain), and the victim of a well-plotted regicide in a power grab by his trusted captain Macbeth. The origin of the character lies in a narrative of the historical Donnchad mac Crinain, King of Scots, in Raphael Holinshed's 1587 The Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland, a history of Britain familiar to Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Unlike Holinshed's incompetent King Duncan (who is credited in the narrative with a "feeble and slothful administration"), Shakespeare's King Duncan is crafted as a sensitive, insightful, and generous father-figure whose murder grieves Scotland and is accounted the cause of turmoil in the natural world.

Es padre de dos hijos jóvenes (Malcolm y ), y la víctima de un regicidio bien planeado en una toma de poder por parte de su confiable capitán, Lord Macbeth. El personaje se basa en el histórico Duncan I de Escocia y a diferencia del incompetente rey Duncan de las Crónicas de Holinshed (a quien se le atribuye en la narrativa una "administración débil y perezosa"), el rey Duncan de Shakespeare está diseñado como una figura paterna sensible, perspicaz y generosa cuyo asesinato aflige a Escocia y se considera la causa de la agitación en el mundo natural.

  • 던컨(Duncan)은 셰익스피어의 희곡 『맥베스의 비극』의 등장인물이다. 맬컴과 도널베인이라는 젊은 아들 두 명이 있는 늙은 왕으로, 믿었던 대장군 맥베스에게 시해당한다. 셰익스피어의 던컨 왕은 기본적으로 실존했던 알바 국왕 돈카드 막 크리난을 모델로 만들어진 것이다. 실존인물 돈카드 1세는 젊은 왕이었고 맥베스의 모델인 막 베하드를 먼저 공격했다가 전사한 인물이었다. 하지만 셰익스피어의 던컨은 역사와 정반대로 각색되어 지혜롭고 관대한 노왕으로, 던컨이 맥베스에게 살해당함으로써 나라가 혼란에 빠지는 것으로 묘사된다.
