Imagery in Macbeth “Violence and the bloodshed that results are important symbols in Shakespeare’s Macbeth. While the blood that is shed is a tangible reminder of the outcomes of misused power‚ it also serves as an image that provokes Macbeth to reflect upon his deeds‚ even if he does not change his behavior. Macbeth becomes obsessed with the blood on his hands. Unfortunately‚ this reminder of his guilt does not prevent him from continuing violent acts.” -Marshall Mc Luhan. Macbeth‚ one of the

William Shakespeare has long been regarded as one of the best writers in the English language. He is mostly known for his development of original plays‚ such as Romeo and Juliet‚ but he is also the composer of 154 sonnets. The sonnet I have chosen to analyze is sonnet 18‚ which reads: Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May‚ And summer’s lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven

Swamps are often seen as negative or even scary. They are the subject of fear or mystery. However in the poem “The Swamp”‚ the author develops a complex relationship with the swamp through language the formation of the poem and imagery. The poem is presented with a unique formation. The descension of the poems words adds a sense of panic. It begins with long lines only to taper off into short strokes. This cultivates a feeling of being trapped or close within the swamp itself. The author fears what

Imagery in The Pearl “And the beauty of the pearl‚ winking and glimmering in the light of the little candle‚ cozened his brain with its beauty. So lovely it was‚ so soft‚ and its own music came from it-its music of promise and delight‚ its guarantee of the future‚ of comfort‚ of security. Its warm lucence promised a poultice against illness and a wall against insult. It closed a door on hunger. And as he stared at it Kino’s eyes softened and his face relaxed. He could see the little image of the

Imagery in Macbeth “Fair is foul and foul is fair.” The Witches‚ Act 1 Scene 1 I feel that this quote depicts an extremely powerful image of appearance verses reality. The witches are foul but they give fair advice. Macbeth may seem like the nation’s hero and posses all the qualities of kingship‚ but in reality he is a ruthless‚ power hungry dictator. As it is the last line of the first scene in the entire play‚ it is very powerful and sets the idea of foreshadowing events to come in the play

Capulet. This story of the young "star-crossed" lovers is an extraordinary work in which Shakespeare uses a variety of verbal imagery including; contrasts between sex and love with hate‚ conflict‚ and death‚ comparisons between romantic and unromantic views of love‚ the correlative use of light and dark polarity‚ and the correlation of fate and fortune. Using this type of imagery‚ T. J. Spencer suggests‚ "at the greatest moment of the play Shakespeare subjects even the ambiguities of words to the sublimity
