Why do some people think Shakespeare may have not written Macbeth?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The real Shakespeare, the one who wrote the plays, was brilliant philosopher Francis Bacon. Or it was romantic and tragic Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford. Or it was secretly Queen Elizabeth. Or Shakespeare’s rival playwright, Christopher Marlowe. (Christopher Marlowe may also have been a spy, and some conspiracy theorists will tell you that he faked his death. The man got around.)Or it was a whole group of people! Maybe it was all of them? Even the Supreme Court’s gotten in on the argument. In 1987, Justices John Paul Stevens, William Brennan, and Harry Blackmun held a mock trial on the authorship question. Brennan found in favor of the Stratford man, but Stevens and Blackmun weren’t so sure.

How does the shift in structure from an autobiographical tale to a “bedtime story” affect the reader?
Bezzdna [24]
The shift in structure from an autobiographical tale to a "bedtime story" or a "fairy tale" increases the personal interest of the reader into the story itself.
The reader starts meeting a family that could be his/hers. The family starts facing some problems or a horrific nightmare. The fairy tale, then, allows the reader to go beyond the borders of the story itself and start picturing himself/herself in the action.
The reader then starts to this how he/she might act? How can the family be protected?....and so on.
