Dear David & Stephen:
Yes, I see your point with these other examples which, you must admit,
seem much more convincing than the first. Prospero can seem overly
subtle to the point of insrutable at times.

"A Google search would seem to indicate that most internet users
would assume you meant a long stick bent by a string and used to fling a

Actually "Bowing" does have it's earliest European origin in archery,
specifically in late 14th century

Dear Ron,
I'm not sure how the audience's hands would help except by applause.
The whole epilogue is asking for the audience to pardon him now that
his magic has been abjured. (the magic of the play)
Here is another direct appeal to the audience to use their hands from
the end o

I'd suggest there is in fact an applause reference. The following
plays threw up similar references after a brief trawl through, and I
have always understood this kind of reference to be part of
Shakespeare's breaking of the fourth wall. Note that all of these
references occur within a fe
As much as I would be pleased to join in with the interpretation of
Prospero's reference to hands, I think it probably bears the more
conventional meaning of helping hands rather than applause. And, as a
violin teacher, the bowing and scraping I endure is certainly more of
the horse
So that's 'bowing'. So how does 'scraping' come into it, as in 'bowing

Dear Mthias,
Well clapping as a way of showing appreciation at the end of a play is
thought to be referred to in the closing speech of Prospero in The
Tempest. In bold here, and presumably some sort of cheering is meant by
the following couplet.
EPILOGUE
SPOKEN BY PROSPERO
Bowing as an educated way of greeting someone else is already mentioned in
the Bible. That dates back way beyond antiquity. Yet as for musicians
receiving applause with a bow, that would imply that musicians were
acknowledged as kind of emancipated artists considered worthy to receive
applause.
