Shakespeare was one of the best writers in english history, and his version of writing is the one in which is based english nowadays. His writing styles composes a special rhythm because of the great amount of contractions and rhetorical figures he used in his poems and dramas. Also, one of the reasons his play are more understandable than his poems is because his plays were presented on theaters created by Queen Elizabeth I that were called Elizabethan theaters; these places were specially designed for people of lower classes who can appreciate master pieces of theater , increase their culture, have a time of entertainment and paying low costs.
Despite of Shakespeare's english is the basis of actual english, there are a great amount of differences between them. Some of them are the pronouns he used like thee, thou, thing; also, the use of contractions makes the reading really hard for the english speakers nowadays, because these contractions may misunderstand the context of the reading. Other thing different is the redaction, perhaps it is because William Shakespeare belonged to the baroque literary movement, in which the style of writing was too elaborated and complicated. However, in most of the part of the works of Shakespeare, the english is too similar to the actual one.
In all the themes he uses in his work, specially in Macbeth is the transience of life, the ambition, the honor, and the guilt of obtaining what you want by harming others. En Macbeth also the manipulation is showed in how Lady Macbeth forces Macbeth to kill whoever is interfering in her ambitions, making macbeth think that those ambitions are his ones.
Shakespeare is one of the best writers in history of humanity, but his contractions are worse than hell.
