Socratic Seminar Review #1

i completely agree that the way Shakespeare is written, it gives the whole book a complete different perspective. As Shakespeare talks in an older form of English it's makes the story line seem more interesting. If Macbeth, Julius Ceaser, and Romeo and Juliet were written in today's language it would just be the same to any other book or movie.
Another thing that Shakespeare has in all his stories are, IRONY- he uses all types of irony. Shakespeare also has certain characters, like a bad guy, the good guy, sneaky ones, a character that dies from poison or murdered. He uses a lot of the same themes as well, majorly it is Anger and Power, everyone seem like they need all the power and Will do anything for it.
