What is tempest about?

The tempest is about a group of people who get shipwrecked on a island (Miranda and prospero) and then they try and take over the island and enslave a native monster/man called Caliban and also imprison a island spirit called Ariel, after a few weeks Miranda stumbles across another person called Ferdinand and they both fall in love, I'm not sure what happens in between but at the end prospero sets Ariel free and Ferdinand and Miranda gets married, and everyone is happy :) Xx love sophiex hope this helps


What are facts about the tempest?

The Tempest is about a man called Prospero, who used to be Duke of Milan but was soon betrayed by his own brother called Antonio whilst Prospero studied magic. He was sent out to sea on a boat with his daughter called Miranda, who has never seen a man except her dad and Caliban (who comes up at a later point). Prospero and Miranda soon find themselves on land that they have never seen before, where Caliban shows them around. 12 years later and Prospero is the ruler, with 2 slaves: Ariel, who is neither a Male nor Female. Then there is Caliban, the "dark creature" mentioned before, who does his best to disobey Prospero. Prospero soon discovers that a ship carrying Antonio, Alonso and Ferdinand (the people who overthrew him) was passing near the island. With help from Ariel, Prospero summons The Tempest, a huge storm, to shipwreck them on the island. The stranded try to search for each other, hindered by Ariel along the way. Then Alonso and Ferdinand reunite, but Ferdinand finds Miranda and decides to marry her (without knowing that his father Alonso was the person who banished Prospero). Eventually the situation ends, and Prospero using his magic makes them all forgive each other, and then sets Ariel free. He gives up his magic and returns back home, with everyone except Caliban. Prospero is then reinstated as Duke of Milan. (Oh, and can people PLEASE stop answering if they are just going to go off topic)

What do you think about the figure of Prospero in The Tempest Is he a real powerful wizard Or did Shakespeare want to make him only a self-styled wizard?

Prospero does seem to have power over Ariel. In Act IV Scene I we have this exchange: Ariel: What would my potent master? Here I am. Prospero: . . . Go bring the rabble O'er whom I give thee power here, to this place. Ariel (whose magic it is that causes the Tempest, confounds the shipwrecked mariners and so on) calls Prospero "potent" or powerful, and Prospero says that he has given power to Ariel. Ariel clearly believes that he cannot have his freedom unless Prospero grants it. If Prospero were only a self-styled wizard, it would be odd that Ariel, who is clearly a powerful magician, would be fooled. But it might be possible to present the play on the premise that Ariel for all his magic, is easily fooled and was so impressed by Prospero chopping open the tree Ariel was imprisoned in (something anyone with an axe might do) that he is convinced that Prospero must be a great magician. It is reminiscent of the reaction by Montezuma's Aztecs to Cortez. It would be interesting to try such an interpretation on the stage. But it is unlikely to be what Shakespeare had in mind.

How did the play change when the Prospero role was played by a woman rather than a man?

The questioner must be referring to the film version of The Tempest directed by Julie Taymor and starring Helen Mirren as Prospero. The answer is, the play did not change a lot. We are prepared to accept that single parents have to try their best to be both father and mother to their children. Shakespeare had a single father trying to do this, but it is no different to see a single mother doing it.
