  On "Ariel"
Particularly in "Ariel," she is careful to link the thematic and rhyme devices already mentioned to an overall structure which suggests the special kind of fusions that she intends.
The very fact that the stanzas are tri-fold parallels the tri-fold allusions to horse, Ariel in Shakespeare, and "Ariel" as a reference to Jerusalem, Therefore, the stanzaic structure as well as the structure of the individual stanzas corroborates the theme of the poem.
To treat "Ariel" as a confessional poem is to suggest that its actual importance lies in the horse- ride taken by its author, in the author's psychological problems, or in its position within the biographical development of the author.

 :. Associazione Culturale ARIEL .:
Ariel è il nome dello "spiritello dell'aria" protagonista de «La tempesta» di William Shakespeare.

 "Ariel: The Creative Spirit of Shakespeare"
It is widely accepted—and not without cause—that Shakespeare put himself on the stage for all to see, and in his finest, most creative form (the audience watches him literally create worlds and events before their eyes) in the person of Prospero.
Ariel is Shakespeare the creative spirit, the mind capable of creating the people, places, times, events, emotions, and even universes the craftsman needs to get his message to his audience.
Shakespeare does, rightfully, take ownership and responsibility of his own creativity when he describes how he set Ariel free from the tree: "It was mine art…that made gape / the pine and let thee out," (1.2.293-95).

 Will Durant Online: The Gentle Philosopher
A brilliant conversationalist and sharp debater, Ariel’s intellect blossomed under the guidance of the man whom she referred to as her "teacher, lover, mentor and friend," Will Durant.
Will for years called me Puck, from one of Shakespeare’s flighty fairies; but in his premature autobiography, Transition (1927), he rechristened me Ariel, from another fairy – forgetting that they were both male.
Ariel was nominated as "Woman of the Year" by the City of Los Angeles in 1977, her opinions on history, philosophy and social issues such as woman’s liberation and education being much sought after by both women and men throughout the world.

 The Tempest Summary & Essays - William Shakespeare
And while Shakespeare may have had a hand in The Two Noble Kinsman (written a decade or so after The Tempest and assigned to dual authorship), The Tempest is customarily identified as the Bard's last stage piece.
The romance genre is distinguished by the inclusion (and synthesis) of these tragic, comic, and problematical ingredients and further marked by a happy ending (usually concluding with a masque or dance) in which all, or most, of the characters are brought into harmony.
The play was composed by Shakespeare as a multi-sensory theater experience, with sound, and especially music, used to complement the sights of the play, and all of it interwoven by the author with lyrical textual passages that overflow with exotic images, trifling sounds, and a palpable lushness.

The story spans centuries, beginning with Ariel's birth from the head of a luckless sailor, who was blown across the Atlantic in the fifty-eighth Year of Our Lord and ending with the arrival of Christopher Columbus in the New World.
When the sailor dies, Ariel does not, and spends the following centuries shifting from one fantastical form to another, amusing herself in solitude until a very practical and very pregnant woman named Sycorax lands on her island to give birth to Caliban.
Sycorax's lack of imagination confounds, then diminishes Ariel until she is weak enough to be imprisoned in a tree for her unwillingness to offer Sycorax any practical assistance.
