There’s a very old saying, which is still prominent in our lives, that ''the man, who has no imagination, has no wings''. We are all aware of that. The imagination runs the show. We can't accept the modern literature without it. Shakespeare used it very often and with so much excellence that he brought it to the perfection. Macbeth is the best example of Shakespeare's use of imagination. Macbeth becomes very obsessed, or say possessed with an idea of becoming king that his imagination leads him…

“Truth is stranger than fiction…. Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities.” - Mark Twain The following quote shows the reader that the truth is eccentric to the possibilities you can think of. As a matter of fact, the novel: “And Then There Were None” corresponds with the relation of the quote.

One night, I heard a furious roar from King Xerxes. Earlier, he asked his servants to call for Queen Vashti. His servants returned and told him she wouldn’t go to him. When I heard that, I was shocked. Why did she disobey the king? Did she not know she would be punished? That infuriated the king. He didn’t want Queen Vashti to be queen anymore. The king called his nobles and officials to make a royal decree. A few moments later, it got late and I was placed on a stand near the king’s bed. The…

The theme of nature acting strangely is one of the most important themes found in Shakespeare’s Macbeth. Shakespeare often displays the character’s motives through nature acting abnormally. He tends to disguise prophecies using the unnatural. He also uses subliminal metaphors to describe events that are currently happening in the play. Shakespeare uses the unnatural to display the character’s motives, prophecy the fate of characters, and allude towards what is occurring in the play. In Act 1…
