Question

Shakespeare's use of supernatural elements and eerie sounds contributes to the _____ of Macbeth.

Answer 1

Answer:

Shakespeare used supernatural elemens and eerie sounds to contribute to Macbeth's d) Mood.

Explanation:

First of all, to understand this question we need to analyze it and the options.

a) The irony is a rhetorical device in which the writer has 2 realities, one the obvious is not the truth and the deep one which is the truth hidden in the obvious. So, it's wrong because if Shakespeare would use it the descriptions would have been the opposite and it would be difficult for the reader to understand his story.

b) history is the real transition between one even and the other, if Shakespeare would have used it he would have written a historic description of the Macbeth environment and not the drama. So it's wrong.

c) diction is the narrative elements and tools the writer has to tell a story so in our case, supernatural elements and sounds are not diction tools.

d) mood is the description of the world and environment in a work of literature. So, it's right. Descriptions help the reader to contextualize itself in the story.

Answer 2

Shakespeare's use of supernatural elements and eerie sounds contributes to the mood of Macbeth.
