Question

(ii) How can you say from this scene(Act 1 Scene1,The Tempest) that Shakespeare had a sound knowledge
of a ship at sea?

Answer 1

Shakspeare was a great dramatist and wanted to make it realistic in his portrayal of life aboard a ship in the midst of a storm. If he had a considerable idea about ships was still questionable.

• However he came from the experience, Shakespeare obviously understood that in the case of a deadly storm at sea.
• He knew that it will be a common practice for the passengers to remain below deck while the crew attempted to maneuver the ship under the dangerous conditions.
