That's what you call a soliloquy â a character's speech voicing his or her own thoughts as if to himself. Shakespeare's plays are full of soliloquies. The noun, soliloquy, comes from the Latin roots, solus alone plus loqui speak meaning a talking to oneself.. A soliloquy is a speech a character gives of his thoughts and reflections. Some of the most famous lines in drama are taken from soliloquies.
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, the speaker reveals his thoughts to the audience, or to any other character; whereas in a soliloquy, the speaker expresses his thoughts to himself, and it does not involve any other characters. Examples of Monologue in Literature Example #1: The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock (By T. S. Eliot)
