Write a note on comic or dramatic relief in shakespeare's ''macbeth''
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
After an action scene in a play, or a critical moment in a story, there is a huge amount of tension in the air, and the audience or readers are riled up. In order to calm the audience down, the author of the play or story has to use “comic relief”. This involves using comedy and humor, which can be in the forms of a humorous scenario, a character having funny lines, or puns (words that have more than one meaning). Comic relief is used in a genre of literature that is not “comedy”, and it is done in order to “relieve” the audience or readers of the dramatic tension that the scene in the piece of literature caused. Although the tension is relieved, the contrast in the genre of the scene with high tension and the moment with the comic relief strengthens the audience’s emotions about the critical scene.
