How does the audience learn the background story of Caliban?

A conversation between Prospero and Caliban shares the details of how Caliban came to be his servant.


How does Shakespeare's decision to structure the Tempest to include the marriage of Miranda and Ferdinand most likely affect the story?

The plot of the Tempest in one of the few which came out of Shakespeare's brain and not out of a book he had read or an older play he had seen or acted in. Part of what he wanted in this play was a happy romance between a couple of young people. Such plot strands can be found in many plays of the time with a happy ending, and in many of Shakespeare's. The play ends with the parties intending to marry (rarely do they actually marry on stage, as this would be the depiction of a sacrament). In this play, the theme is reconciliation, and part of the reconciliation is the joining by marriage Prospero's family with the family of the Duke of Naples, formerly his enemy and the ally of his usurping brother.


What is the significance of Caliban's speech in Act 1 Scene 2?

Caliban reminds Prospero (and the audience) that the island belonged to him after his mother (Sycorax the witch) died and that when Prospero arrived he had shown him (Prospero) round the island. After showing Prospero all the good things and the dangers his reward was to be made a slave. He then has another bout of cursing. Caliban believes this is the only thing he is any good at and , since Prospero taught him, cursing must be good thing. He hopes maybe that when he can curse better than Prospero he will be set free and given back his island.
