You may speculate
on how modern and/or Renaissance audiences would react to the play as part of your
argument, but keep your argument grounded in the text.
You may inc
orporate ideas
about the plays and films that we discussed in class or on Blackboard, but extend your
analysis well beyond them: I will be judging your essay primarily by its

of the text or films (and secondarily by how surprising and how
well constructed I find
your argument).
The Tempest
deals with many different notions of
creation,
power
,
and
dominion
:
political rule, parenting,
control over a slave or servant
or prisoner
, authorship of a book
or a play or a magical spell. Consider two expressions of power in the play (perhaps

y the same character, or perhaps exerted separately by different characters).

message in doing so?
