Overview and Context

The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare.
It is a set text for IGCSE Literature in English (0475).
The play is studied as drama and may appear in Paper 2 Section A (Drama) or Component 3 (Coursework).
In Paper 2, candidates answer one passage-based and one essay question on each set text.
In Component 3, candidates write a comparative essay on two complete texts, one of which must be drama.
The play explores themes of loss and restoration, power, magic and illusion, and colonization.

Loss and Restoration

Prospero's attempt to recover his lost dukedom of Milan drives the plot.
Ariel lost his freedom to Sycorax and now serves Prospero.
Caliban considers himself the rightful ruler of the island but was overthrown and enslaved by Prospero.
By creating the tempest that shipwrecks Alonso and his courtiers, Prospero strips them of their position and power.
The theme of loss and restoration is central to the play's structure and character development.

Power

From the opening storm, when courtiers must take orders from sailors, the play examines questions about power.
Key questions include: Who has power? Who is entitled to it? What is responsible exercise of power? How should power be transferred?
The play is full of examples of power taken by force.
Prospero's magic gives him total control over events on the island.
Caliban and Ariel both experience loss of freedom and serve Prospero, illustrating power dynamics.

Magic, Illusion, and Prospero as Playwright

The play begins with Prospero's magic (the tempest) and ends with his magic (commanding Ariel to ensure safe return).
Prospero uses visual and aural illusions to manipulate his enemies and expose their true selves.
At nearly every point, Prospero's magic gives him total control—he always seems to know what will happen next.
Prospero can be seen as a playwright figure, orchestrating events and illusions.
Ariel performs magical tasks, such as the song 'Full fathom five thy father lies'.

Colonization

When the play was written and first performed, Shakespeare and his audiences were interested in European colonization efforts.
The play explores the relationship between the European colonizer and the native colonized peoples through Prospero and Caliban.
Prospero views Caliban as a lesser being than himself.
Caliban says, 'You taught me language, and my profit on ’t / Is, I know how to curse.'
Prospero calls Caliban 'Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself / Upon thy wicked dam'.

Key Characters

Prospero: the rightful Duke of Milan, a magician, and father to Miranda.
Miranda: Prospero's daughter, who exclaims, 'O brave new world / That has such people in ’t!'
Ariel: an airy spirit who serves Prospero and performs magic.
Caliban: the native inhabitant of the island, enslaved by Prospero.
Ferdinand: the King's son, who leaps from the burning ship.
Alonso: the King of Naples, shipwrecked on the island.
Stephano and Trinculo: comic characters who interact with Caliban.

Key Quotations

Caliban: 'Be not afeard. The isle is full of noises, / Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not.'
Ariel (song): 'Full fathom five thy father lies. / Of his bones are coral made.'
Prospero: 'We are such stuff / As dreams are made on, and our little life / Is rounded with a sleep.'
Prospero: 'But this rough magic / I here abjure... I'll break my staff, / Bury it certain fathoms in the earth, / And deeper than did ever plummet sound / I'll drown my book.'
Miranda: 'O, wonder! / How many goodly creatures are there here! / How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world / That has such people in ’t!'
Prospero: 'This thing of darkness I / Acknowledge mine.'
Caliban: 'You taught me language, and my profit on ’t / Is, I know how to curse.'
