The Tempest: Shakespere play

The Tempest: Shakespere play

I have a discussion post about the play The Tempest by Shakespeare that needs to be completed. The instructions from the instructor are below.

One of the things Tempest shows us is relationships. To fully appreciate those relationships, you need to know the characters. In the first two acts you have med the main players in the story. For this discussion, select TWO characters – one from the ship, and one from the island – and write a character analysis for each. These should be complete, but do not need to be extremely long – you need one good, detailed paragraph about each. Do NOT include physical description.

Shakespeare’s Tempest is one of the most figurative plays with both aspects of comedy and tragedy displayed through the actions of the character’s relations to each other. Some of the main characters from the Island and ship are Prospero and Antonio respectively.

Prospero

As the main protagonist of the play, Prospero shows the trait of power as he possesses magical powers that enable him to control people’s actions. He exercises power over his servants by treating them with contempt, giving punishments and demanding moral integrity from them all.
