In "Ode to the West Wind," Shelley uses personification to describe the West Wind. However, the personification keeps changing throughout the poem. In the beginning, the poet personifies the West Wind as a Supernatural being, who embodies both anger and mercy, life and death. The wind is like a forcRead more

Tempest has many parallel notes of conflict and rancour. Prospero is enraged by the betrayal of his brother Antonio and King Alonso. Caliban is desperate to remove Prospero from the position of power on the Island.
Ariel wants to earn his freedom while Ferdinand and Miranda want to marry each other against her father’s wishes.
Even the opening scene, there is conflict between the Boatswain and the nobles, King and his cohorts etc.The same theme is witnessed when Trinculo, Stefano and Caliban plot to kill Prospero and Antonio-Sebastian scheme to murder Gonzalo and King Alonso.
Apart from Caliban-Prospero which is left ambiguous, rest of the conflicts are resolved by the culmination of the story.

Tempest end with a sense of closure as Alonso and Prospero settle their differences and celebrate the union of their heirs, Ferdinand and Miranda. This breeds a spirit of cohesion, co-operation and trust.
The marriage also points to a future of commitment and togetherness aimed at righting the wrongs of the past. Prospero renounces his magic and frees Ariel. He re-assumes the dukedom of Milan and so the island goes back to Caliban.

There are two distinct kinds of treatment that may be given to time in the dramatic structure:
The first is employed to achieve vividness to achieve or intensity by compressing the action, i.e., by confining the action to event of short duration, or by accelerating the time within a speech or episode.
The second kind of treatment is to extend the plot time to tell a richer, more extensive story i.e. by skipping comparatively long intervals between episodes, or by looking back and showing action at some previous time, or by using a double time which includes both a long period and a short one. Bertram Jessup has indicated the importance of achieving magnitude in a work of art. In the play form which is limited in physical size, achieving a big work of art is, therefore chiefly a matter of increasing the intensity or extensity of the plot through concentrating or extending the time structure.
