Why do you think Ariel’s diction is mostly poetic and full of figurative in The Tempest?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A soliloquy is where a character, onstage and alone, reveals their thoughts to the audience. Shakespeare, as The Tempest is not a tragedy, does not use many soliloquy's, as the dramatic scenes in the play are enough to give accurate information to the audience. However, Shakespeare does use a few soliloquys, most notably through Prospero, for example, in Scene 5, Act 1, to end the play by telling the audience that he is giving up his magic.
