Summary

"La Tempesta" by William Shakespeare is a play written in 1610–1611. On a remote island, the magician Prospero lives in exile with his daughter Miranda and his servants—the monster Caliban and the spirit Ariel. When a ship carrying his treacherous brother passes nearby, Prospero conjures a storm that wrecks it, scattering the survivors across the island. He then sets in motion an elaborate plan involving magic, romance, and revenge that will determine everyone's fate. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
