Show transcript
While we may not know Shakespeare’s intentions, we can make an educated guess through looking at the language used. The audience might interpret Caliban as a threatening figure or a sympathetic figure. Persuasive devices can be used to convince the audience that your argument is correct. A debate is where two teams offer their arguments either for or against a debate statement.
