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.

Who uses black magic in the tempest?
In Shakespeare's "The Tempest," the character who uses black magic is Prospero. He is a former Duke of Milan who has been exiled to a remote island, where he gains control over supernatural forces through his knowledge of magic, which some may perceive as dark or manipulative.

His magic serves both as a tool for revenge and a means to achieve justice.

How is caliban and Ariel relationship with prospero similar?
One school of thought, with which I agree, is that Caliban and Ariel both represent, in part, different aspects of Prospero's identity. It is also important to consider that Shakespeare may have aligned himself with Prospero (see the end of the play where Prospero gives up his book and staff); many think this most likely last play by Shakespeare is Shakespeare's way of saying he is retiring from writing. Keep in mind, too, that it is the good, the bad, and the ugly that make up human identity, and even those parts have their good, bad, and ugly aspects, as well. Shakespeare's works, God bless them and him, ask the audience to think deeply about human actions, thoughts, beliefs, prejudices, motivations, dreams, aspirations, victories, failures, and much more. But Caliban and Ariel play other roles that address the human interests I have just mentioned. Shakespeare, thankfully, never made it easy. :o)
Which of prosperos actions most clearly indicates that he is manuliptve?
Prospero's manipulation is most clearly seen in how he orchestrates events on the island to bring his enemies under his control. For example, he uses Ariel and his magic to create illusions and control the actions of others, such as causing the shipwreck that brings his enemies to the island. Prospero's treatment of Caliban also displays his manipulative nature, as he asserts dominance over Caliban by promising him freedom only to maintain control over him.
