Standards Focus: Theme Theme is the central idea or message in a work of literature. Theme should not be confused with the subject of the work, but rather, theme is a general statement about life or human nature. Shakespeare is known for telling stories with universal themes, or ideas to which people across time and cultures can relate. Macbeth has several themes, and the reader or audience must take a good look at the entire play (the title, plot, characters, setting, and mood) which all work together to reveal the themes.
