He was a hero who was driven by vengeance at the middle of the novel and became a villain. He was not a born villain but a villain made.

Despite being a foreigner to the land, Prospero claims the island as his own and enslaves the lone inhabitant, Caliban, while also asserting his rule over the spirit, Ariel. Furthermore, Prospero’s daughter, Miranda, remains subservient to her father. Despite his seemingly malicious intentions, Shakespeare hesitates from going as far as making Prospero a tyrannical dictator. Instead, Shakespeare

Throughout the book of Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer Miranda, the protagonist, is a complex and dynamic character. The protagonist, Miranda, perspective through the hardships through the survival of life.

Prospero ends up forgiving the people that have wronged him which becomes a major theme in the play. The above passage is a soliloquy from Prospero when he realizes he will not enact revenge against his brother. Using

Is it better to have forgiveness or to get revenge? Throughout The Tempest by William Shakespeare, Prospero displays both of these traits. As the play goes on more and more of her plan is revealed and it appears she wants revenge but in the end, she chose to forgive them. That is because there is more value in forgiving someone than getting revenge on them. The difference between forgiving someone and getting revenge on someone is that revenge can hurt more people than helps. In Act 3 Caliban asks

Cesaire states “A civilization that chooses to close its eyes to its most crucial problem is stricken civilization” (Cesaire 47). In the poem, Ariel seemed to have warned Caliban of the evil acts that Prospero was planning to do to him and this made Caliban greet him with a lot of suspicion. Caliban respond to Ariel by asking him if the old man had sent him. He swiftly rebuked Ariel by blaming him for not resisting Prospero’s orders. Caliban also made a sarcastic statement when he stated that Ariel

The Tempest vs An Enemy of the People The Tempest is a play that explores many different ideas about humanity. Two of the primary themes of the Tempest are knowledge and power. The entire play shows the power of Prospero and of his spirit, Ariel, and the power that Prospero uses to control the entire story. He is a bit of a control freak when it comes down to it. Using his magic to enslave Ariel and using his magic to control the actions of the crew on the boat, and seek revenge upon those who wronged

The plots presented in Act 3 of Shakespeare’s The Tempest evoke numerous questions and interest in different characters. However, I am particularly interested in Caliban due to his brutish yet graceful nature, his uniqueness, and his representation of the natives. Caliban is portrayed as a “savage,” “deformed slave,” “fish,” and a “hag-seed,” but is also shown to be civilized.

The Tempest is a play full of trauma. All of this trauma is either dealt to or dealt by one character, Prospero. We see several instances of Prospero terrorizing those around him in different ways, mainly by using threat of physical or mental abuse. We see him continually use manipulation and violence in order to remain the most powerful on the isle, which causes his underlings to fear him.

In The Tempest, by William Shakespeare, Caliban is one of the main characters who is shown a prime example of betrayal. For example, Caliban states “when thou camest first, thou strokedst me and madest much of me…, and then I loved thee, and show’d thee all the qualities o’ the isle…”(Act 1 Scene 2 Pg.524 Line 332). This shows that Caliban was betrayed for he once trusted them when they first showed up. Prospero betrays caliban later in the story which causes caliban to turn on him. This betrayal

Caliban is an interesting character who experiences numerous hardships throughout the course of The Tempest. Suffering from being a slave to Próspero Caliban is unhappy with his situation and would do anything to improve his being.

Ursula turns into a Princess with Ariel’s voice the prince claims to his male assistant, “We wish to be married as soon as possible.” Although, it is evident Ursula does not lure the Prince because her objective is to capture Ariel and be the ruler of the ocean not marry Eric.
