fantasy in literature second part, correct me please! :) Finally, using fantasy can be a way to help the story to go forwards as in the “tempest” by William Shakespeare. It’s the story of Prospero, actual Duke of Milan who is sent by his evil brother Antonio on a desert island in order to take the throne of Milan, helped by Alonso, king of Naples. Thanks to his magic powers he got from the spirit Ariel, Prospero managed to make the ship on which Alonso and Antonio went back from Tunis, ship rack. So that everybody ended up on the desert island. Even if the story was meant to turn into a battlefield (according to the fact that each character had a different interest), breeding many conspiracies, it ended up in a reconciliation. I have to notice that all the adventures (most of them) tended to happen because of Ariel’s presence. The magic powers of Prospero were definitely the trigger of all reaction, allowing the character to interact in many different ways, and finally to a reconciliation Alonzo said “There are not natural events = they strengthen from strange to stranger.” In conclusion, the use of fantasy in literature allows the writers to give their own definition of art showing in what way art is a kind of magic power in itself. But also to show their feeling out of bashfulness. And finally to help the story to evolve. Here I can even say that fantasy in also a way to express different forms of relationships between the artist and its audience, but also between characters.

Finally, using fantasy can be a way to help move the story forwards, as in the “Tempest” by William Shakespeare.

 

It’s the story of Prospero, actually the Duke of Milan, who is sent by his evil brother Antonio onto a desert island in order to take the throne of Milan, helped by Alonso, king of Naples. Thanks to his magic powers, which he got from the spirit Ariel, Prospero managed to make the ship on which Alonso and Antonio travel, turn back from Tunis, but it is shipwrecked.  Everybody ends up on the desert island.

 

It is as if the story was meant to turn into a battlefield (due to the fact that each character has different motivations), creating many conflicts, though ending in reconciliation. It is noticeable that Ariel's presence is the catalyst leading to many (most) of the adventures, with the magic powers of Prospero definitely the trigger for all of the events. Causing the character to interact in many different ways and leading to a final reconciliation. Alonzo said “There are not natural events = they strengthen from strange to stranger.”

In conclusion, the use of fantasy in literature allows writers to define art in their own way, representing are as a kind of magical power in it's own right.  Allowing them to overcome their inhibitions. And finally to help the story to evolve. Here I can even say that fantasy in also a way to express different forms of the relationship between the artist and his audience, and also between characters.
