# The Tempest

By William Shakespeare.

"The Tempest" by William Shakespeare is a play written in 1610–1611. On a remote island, the exiled magician Prospero lives with his daughter Miranda and two servants—the monster Caliban and the spirit Ariel. When a ship carrying his treacherous brother passes nearby, Prospero conjures a storm that strands the passengers on his island. Through magic and manipulation, he sets in motion an intricate plan involving romance, conspiracy, and revenge, while themes of betrayal, forgiveness, and redemption unfold in this enchanted tale.
