Shakespeare is considered as a playwright for all time as his plays were a significant contribution to English literature and revolutionising the language. He incorporates themes which are understood universally as they are relatable to society. Shakespeare’s work engages his readers or audience with great literacy skills and poetry which create imagery and evoke deep thought or humour. He created very dramatic plays and characters with story lines that are relatable to people today because the ideas and problems the characters explored relate to people both in Elizabethan Times and the world today. Two significant themes that relate to people in Macbeth is the fact that appearances often hide reality and the connection between fate and free will. Shakespeare’s work lasted for all time because his advanced language skills created themes which were relevant to everyone, making it universal. The fact that appearances often hide reality is part of human nature to hide secrets and occurs in society for all time. This idea relates to people as it is significant in both Elizabethan Times and modern society. People hide their true selves with an innocent appearance. This deceptive behaviour can result in people spiralling deeper into the lie or revealing themselves later. “All Three Witches: Fair is foul, and foul is fair, hover through the fog and filthy air” introduces the idea that appearances often hide reality. This quote equivocates people’s minds and create confusion between good and evil. This makes future events difficult to tell if they are good or evil. Shakespeare emphasises chant with the inclusion of supernatural forces and rhyming. Before Duncan arrives at Macbeth’s castle, Lady Macbeth and Macbeth hide their appearance pretending to be loyal servants to King Duncan, “Lady Macbeth: look like th’innocent flower, but be the serpent under”. Macbeth exposes his true self when he decides to kill the king after being persuaded by Lady Macbeth. Shakespeare highlights the reality that Macbeth wants to kill the king by using a long detailed soliloquy
