The Tempest - Wikipedia

I find The Tempest wiki enlightening, broad, and blessedly devoid of academic blather. No one source inspired Tempest. May be Shakesp's last play. One of the most produced plays. John Gielgud considered greatest Prospero of 20th Century. etc. . . #thetempest_2025 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tem...

wow. so much going on in this ending of Derek Jarman's 1979 Tempest. Singer Elizabeth Welch sings "Stormy Weather" to a cadre of sailor boys while Miranda and Ferdinand gaze on. #thetempest_2025 youtu.be/t8cTeGEGvc0?...

I know you Youngs love to rush on to the next thing, but I'm savoring my discovery of The Tempest and its mysteries. (WTH did Shakespeare mean by all this sturm und drang?) Here, Richard Burton is Caliban, Roddy McDowell Ariel in 1960 US TV version. Amazing performances. youtube. #thetempest_2025

Caliban

What a thrice-double ass
Was I, to take this drunkard for a god,
And worship this dull fool.

PROSPERO.
... Two of these fellows you
Must know and own: this thing of darkness I
Acknowledge mine.

ALONSO. I long
To hear the story of your life, which must
Take the ear strangely.

Was ever conduct of.

MIRANDA. O wonder!
How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world,
That has such people in't.

Act V s1 #TheTempest_2025 Like the Savage in Huxley's #BraveNewWorld , Miranda does not yet know the "civilization" that awaits her. Perhaps she'd stay on the island.

Why we need the structure of comedy: because The Tempest's tempest is but a dream, a spell. A conceit, a longing. In real life a tempest has no happy ending, only a changed one. #thetempest_2025

Hello! #TheTempest_2025 #HenryVI_2025
Option A it is (Richard III, John, Henry VIII).
Also, it makes sense to read King John who stood up to papal tyranny before Henry VIII flexed his muscles.

For more assurance that a living prince
Does now speak to thee, I embrace thy body;
And to thee and thy company I bid
A hearty welcome.

Prospero:
You brother mine, that entertained ambition,
Expelled remorse and nature, whom, with Sebastian,
Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong,
Would here have killed your king—I do forgive thee,
Unnatural though thou art.
(5.1.82-86)

PROSPERO. Now does my project gather to a head.
My charms crack not, my spirits obey, and Time
Goes upright with his carriage. How's the day?
. . .
By moonshine do the green sour ringlets make (1/2)
