Shakespeare helps us
connect and relate to new
experiences via imagery
He introduces abstract
ideas by comparing
them to concrete
examples
Example:
Abstract: I feel trapped
Concrete: Prison
Quote: Denmark s a prison

And cleave the general
ear with horrid speech
Make mad the guilty and
appal the free
