Soliloquy - A popular literary device often used in drama to reveal the innermost thoughts of a character.
Ex: “To be, or not to be? That is the question— Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer. The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune…” Hamlet is in a state of mind that only Shakespeare can describe through his magnificent pen. Uncertain, reluctant Prince Hamlet was literally unable to do anything but merely wait to “catch the conscience of the king” to complete his supposed plan. 

 

Dramatic Irony - Dramatic irony is an important stylistic device that is commonly found in plays, movies, theaters, and sometimes in poetry. Storytellers use this irony as a useful plot device for creating situations in which the audience knows more about the situations, the causes of conflicts, and their resolutions before the leading characters or actors. 

Ex: “There’s no art. To find the mind’s construction in the face: He was a gentleman on whom I built. An absolute trust.”
 
 Foreshadowing - A warning or indication of a future event. 

Ex: The final graveyard flower is blooming, and its smell drifts through their house, speaking gently the names of their dead. (Foreshadows death) 

 

Hubris - Excessive pride or self confidence. 

Ex: In a famous Greek Tragedy “Oedipus Rex” by Sophocles, the character of the “King Oedipus” provides a classic example of a character who suffers from Hubris or excessive pride. Due to his “hubris”, he attempts to defy prophecies of gods but ended up doing what he feared the most and what he was warned against. 

 

Catharsis - A Catharsis is an emotional discharge through which one can achieve a state of moral or spiritual renewal or achieve a state of liberation from anxiety and stress. 

Ex: William Shakespeare wrote two of the famous examples of catharsis. One of these catharsis examples is his tragic drama “Macbeth”. This play presents a great example of catharsis. The audience and readers of Macbeth usually pity the tragic central figure of the play because he was blinded by his destructive preoccupation with ambition.
