Lady Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth
1,653 words... analysis of the imagery of Macbeth Macbeth is a story based on death and jealousy. Shakespeare was a talented writer who made his main ideas constant throughout the play by using images to emphasise this in a different way.

The main theme that runs constantly through the play is chaos. You can see this...
