The Tempest by William Shakespeare Summary and Explanation

In today's RUclips Video, we are discussing William Shakespeare's last solo play "The Tempest" written in 1610.
The Tempest by William Shakespeare is a fable of art, magic & creation. It tells the story of a magician, Prospero living in a remote island with his daughter, Miranda & two servants - Ariel, an airy spirit & Caliban, a savage monster.
The Tempest Shakespeare is a play on colonization.
The Tempest Summary will help you understand the play in detail. In The Tempest Act 1 Scene 1, we see that a ship in sea is caught in the middle of a violent storm. The rest of the play takes play in the remote island. In Act 2 Scene 2, Prospero and Miranda watch the shipwreck. Prospero tells Miranda how he was the Duke of Milan, 12 years back & betrayed by his brother, Antonio.
In The Tempest Act 2, Alonso searches for his son Ferdinand as the latter falls in love with Miranda. In The Tempest Act 3, Prospero punishes his enemies with Ariel.
In The Tempest Act 4 Scene 1, Prospero agrees to the marriage of Miranda & Ferdinand. In The Tempest Act 5, Prospero forgives his enemies, leaves magic & all of them returns to Naples.
The Tempest story has parallels with the life of William Shakespeare. The Tempest summary, character chart & important facts will let you understand the play easily.

Ms. Purba 😅 The way you present your classes is too impressive ❣️ Totally amazed I must say!! I am not a person who’s much into details , so your point based presentation is no less charming!!...
Oh! and I wanted to ask you a favour , would you mind helping us to learn “MERCHANT OF VENICE” by W. Shakespeare ... Through your presentation ❤, there is no much time for our examination to appear it’s really nearby and we were hoping you could do us a big favour 😅😅
