The allusion to the character Caliban creates a clearer picture of the setting and the location of the excerpt. In Shakespeare's The Tempest, Caliban was the son of a witch and was a slave to Prospero. He was a frustrated rap*st which would provide us with the state of morality of the empire in described in Midsummer.

The answer is:

It draws a comparison between the rioters and the character.

In the excerpt from "Midsummer," by Derek Walcott, the speaker feels that the rioters are similar to Shakespearean character Caliban in "The Tempest." Half human and half beast, Caliban represents an exploited subject of colonialism, as he rebelled his master, Prosperous. As a consequence, Walcott considers the rioters are uprising similarly in search of equality.

In about two hundred words, explain how the literary devices used in the novel convey theme.<br>​
777dan777 [17]

I don’t know which specific novel you may be referencing, but generally:

Literary devices can be used to convey theme in many ways. You can use them to convey theme by describing the setting of the story, the mood of the story, the moral of the story, and much more.

You can use foreshadowing to hint at future events important to the story, symbolism to represent important objects relative to the theme, such as a dove in heaven, and you can use a metaphor to assert that one object is another, which brings new meaning to the original subject for a renewed comprehension. These can all improve the conveyance of theme in a story.

These are just a few of the many different literary devices that you can utilize to articulate subjects within a story to add to the understanding or to signify the importance of any detail within the story.”
