Question

What is poetic justice how far poetic justice has been done in macbeth

Answer 1

Answer:

Poetic justice is a literary device employed by authors and writers to show that virtue is rewarded if needed and vice punished accordingly.

Explanation:

In the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare, we can say that poetic justice is achieved fully. Macbeth, due to his greed for power, murdered lots of people, including the Duncan, the King of Scotland and even his former friend Banquo. But his actions also had fatal repercussions - his wife Lady Macbeth killed herself and he himself ended up being killed by Macduff, the son of Banquo, just as the three witches had predicted in the beginning of the play.
