Talk:Slipping Realities

Shakespeare's tragedies focus on a disruption of the natural order and the chaos that follows. In Macbeth's case, the disruption is when someone attempts to usurp the throne. While an interesting argument that the play is sci-fi because of hallucintions being reality shifts or the witches' magic being interchangable with nano-bots is an interesting one, it doesn't exactly seem to work out when the logic is investigated. A piece's genre is defined by the writer's intent, so it doesn't matter how many people say it is A or B, because if the writer wrote it as C then C is what it is. Keep in mind though that I've just had four years of Shakespeare rammed down my throat so I may be getting WAY more into this than is appropriate XD. --Lloyd
