Would a kind soul please help me PLEASE
Shakespeare adds an epilogue after the resolution. In a typical epilogue, a character adds final comments on the conflict and resolution of the play. Prospero’s epilogue is different; it is a request to the audience to the audience to grant him his freedom. Over the centuries, some critics, some critics have seen this speech as a request from Shakespeare himself—the magician of the stage—to release him from his duties and let him retire.
1. (a) What emotions does Prospero convey in this passage? (b) Which lines express these emotions most strongly?
2. If Shakespeare intended the Epilogue as a personal farewell to his audiences, is this speech appropriate? Explain.
