Explanation:
Answer:
The storm is being personified in lines 16-17 of The Tempest.
Explanation:
Personification means giving human traits to an inanimate object. Personification is a literary device used by many authors to add depth and interest to their writing.
In lines 16-17 of The Tempest: "You are a councilor.
If you can command these elements to silence and work the peace of the present,
we will not hand a rope more"
The elements in question refer to the storm, which was given a human trait with the sentence 'if you can command these elements to silence...'.
You can command or silence a person, but you can't do that to a storm.
So, the statement personified the storm (elements) with the human trait of being commanded and silence.
B. The point is to convince an audience, and to do that, you must be able to keep them engaged to care!
