8. A Comparison of The and A

9. Explain of The and A
 TheTempest is one ofWilliam
Shakespeare's final plays, written around the year
1610 and considered to represent the "culmination
of his career". Centered around a deposed ruler,
Prospero, the play takes place exclusively on a
distant island after the ship carrying the King of
Naples encounters a powerful storm and the crew is
forced to abandon the vessel.We find out that this is
caused by the spiritAriel, a servant of Prospero's.
This in fact marks the beginning of a series of actions
by Prospero to manipulate the other characters in
the play towards his own end.

10.  Aime Cesaire's ATempest is a politicized take
on Shakespeare's play created during the late
sixties, a time of great social change. It is
really a "postcolonial response toThe
Tempest " and as such deals much more with
the story from the point of view of Caliban
and Ariel .
