Monologue - a speech delivered by one person, or a long one-sided conversation. The Greek root word monologos translates to “speaking alone” Next Slide

Example: What did the Prologue tell us about the plot? Dramatic irony - occurs when the audience knows something the characters do not. Because of this, the words of the characters take on a different meaning. This can create intense suspense or humor. Example: What did the Prologue tell us about the plot?

Pun - the humorous use of a word to emphasize its different meanings, or the use of words that sound alike but different in meaning (She had a photographic memory but never developed it.) ROMEO I dreamt a dream tonight. MERCUTIO And so did I. Well, what was yours? That dreamers often lie. In bed asleep while they do dream things true

Devices Foil: a foil is a character that shows qualities that are in contrast with the qualities of another character with the objective to highlight the traits of the other character.
