Detailed explanation-1: -Shakespeare uses clothing imagery to emphasize the conflict between appearance and reality, a concern found in many of Shakespeare’s plays. The play’s blood imagery often serves as a metaphor for guilt and retribution and serves as a continual reminder to the audience that Macbeth’s reign is drenched in blood.
Detailed explanation-2: -Shakespeare often uses imagery to explore and add emphasis to a particular idea. In The Tempest, for example, Prospero compares the brief and temporary nature of the span of a human life with the impermanent nature of actors acting out a part in the theatre.
Detailed explanation-3: -In William Shakespeare’s tragedy, Macbeth, Shakespeare uses clothes as a metaphor throughout the play. The symbolism of clothing helped emphasize the change of power in Scotland, the change of opinions, and how the new change did not “fit” properly.
Detailed explanation-4: -Three significant images in Macbeth are blood, darkness, and clothing. The imagery of blood helps convey the guilt and retribution felt by Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, as they struggle with their choice to murder King Duncan.
