This research project delves into the character of Prospero from Shakespeare's "The Tempest," examining his magical abilities, the nature of his powers, and the performances he orchestrates throughout the play. We will explore his motives—whether he acts as an agent of providence or for personal gain. Additionally, we will contrast Prospero's characteristics with those of Sycorax, analyzing themes of power and control. The quote "A lie that is half-truth is the darkest of all lies." by Tennyson Porter invites us to consider the complexities of truth in their dealings.
