Summary: "The Tempest" by William Shakespeare is a play written in the early 17th century. This drama centers around themes of magic, revenge, and redemption, primarily focusing on the character of Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, who uses his magical abilities to control events and manipulate those who wronged him, including his usurping brother Antonio and the King of Naples. At the start of the play, a tumultuous storm at sea causes a shipwreck, leading to the separation of its passengers, including King Alonso and his party. We are introduced to the island where Prospero and his daughter Miranda reside. Prospero reveals to Miranda that they have survived the tempest through his magical interventions, and he begins to recount the tale of their past, including his usurpation and exile. Meanwhile, a spirit named Ariel and the deformed slave Caliban play pivotal roles as Prospero’s helpers and adversaries, fostering a complex dynamic of power and control that will unfold throughout the play.
