CONTOH JENIS MONOLOG

Interior Monologue

In interior monologue, a character externalizes his thoughts, so that audience could witness the experiences, which might otherwise be remained internal. Often found in plays, movies and novels, this technique is also called as stream of consciousness. It has further two categories, direct and indirect. In direct interior monologue, an author does not show his presence and directly reveals his character, while in an indirect interior monologue, an author appears as a commentator, guide, presenter and selector.

Dramatic Monologue

In this type of monologue, a character speaks to the silent listener. This type has theatrical qualities. Hence, it is known as dramatic monologue, and is frequently used in poetry.

Difference between A Monologue and A Soliloquy

Monologue and soliloquy are similar as both are speeches presented by a single person. But a major difference between them is that, in monologue, a speaker reveals his thoughts to the audience or any other character, whereas in a soliloquy, the speaker expresses his thoughts to himself/herself, and it does not involve any other characters.
