The concepts you have discussed are super valuable, thanks for breaking them down ;)

Hi! quick question:
 for 'Discovery of the fragility of the social order (and ones place within it)'
how would I approach this if i wanted to include the idea of 'good governance' (my teachers are very insistent on it)
thanks!

Could you explain it a bit more what you mean by 'good governance'? I never looked at that during my study last year - not that it wouldn't be a fantastic thing to include, if you teacher is insistent on it then it most likely is! I'm just not sure how to relate them since I don't actually know what it is haha

Crabstickz:
nw! good governance is basically the idea that Prospero becomes a better ruler at the end because he becomes someone who governs his land and subjects traditionally and rightfully. He seeks and accepts forgiveness and he gives up magic, the unorthodox thing which caused him to lose his kingdom. Basically, I think (at least what i've managed to gather from class) is that Prospero ends up successful in regaining his dukedom because he returns to the conventional, accepted method of ruling, i.e. practicising good governance like all kings and royalty should rather than focusing on the 'dark arts' of magic.

Hi! I'm struggling with language techniques in the Tempest! Would love to hear of any other techniques of note other than Shakespeare's use of prose and verse that occur frequently in the text  :)
Thanks!
