Killing The King Pathetic Fallacy
1,704 words
At the time Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, people were
interested in the idea of the supernatural and the
unknown. It would have been a hot conversational
topic of the day in the late 16 th century, with
most folks being very suspicious of things of this
nature. This seems to be one of the reasons why

particular theme. Another reason would be that the
playwright knew his work would be performed in
front of King James; the King was of Scottish
heritage and...

the play, Macbeth, Shakespeare uses contrasts of
nature in various ways. He consistently shows us

together, but Shakespeare's use of the word or

others. When batt...
