La Tempête by William Shakespeare
"La Tempête" by William Shakespeare is a play written in 1610–1611. On a remote island, Prospero, a banished duke and magician, lives with his daughter Miranda and two servants—the monster Caliban and the spirit Ariel. When a ship carrying his treacherous brother passes nearby, Prospero conjures a storm that strands the passengers on his shores. Through magic and manipulation, he orchestrates revenge, romance, and ultimately confronts questions of forgiveness and redemption before
abandoning his powers forever. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
