What metaphors does shakespeare use to convey macbeths attitude toward life after lady macbeths death?
One metaphor Shakespeare uses to convey Macbeth's attitude toward life after Lady Macbeth's death is "tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow" speech. In this soliloquy, Macbeth compares life to a "brief candle" that is extinguished quickly, reflecting his nihilistic view on life. Another metaphor is "Life's but a walking shadow", emphasizing the transience and meaningless of life in Macbeth's eyes.
Why does shakespeare chose to use apostrophe rather that to have Macbeth describe a menacing dagger?
Shakespeare uses apostrophe in Macbeth's soliloquy about the dagger because it allows for a more dramatic and intense tone. The use of apostrophe, in which Macbeth directly addresses the dagger as if it were a person, heightens the sense of unease and adds to the overall atmosphere of the scene. It also serves to portray Macbeth's growing paranoia and inner turmoil.
