This article is about speeches to oneself. For the psychological phenomenon, see self-talk.

A soliloquy (/səˈlɪl.ə.kwi, soʊˈlɪl.oʊ-/, from Latin solo "to oneself" + loquor "I talk",[1] plural soliloquies) is a monologue addressed to oneself and audience, with thoughts spoken out loud without addressing another character.[2][3]

Popularized by William Shakespeare[4], soliloquies are used as a device in drama. In a soliloquy, a character typically is alone on a stage and make their thoughts, feelings, and intentions known to the audience.[5] Addressing it directly or take it into their confidence,[6] wholly or in part.[7] English Renaissance drama used soliloquies to great effect,[6] such as in the soliloquy "To be, or not to be", the centerpiece of Shakespeare's Hamlet.[8][9]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
