The Tempest/Caliban & European Perspective
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that analyzes the role of Caliban in Shakespeare's The Tempest. Throughout the play, Caliban is relegated to sub-human status in the European perspective. Examination of Shakespeare's use of Caliban provides insight into the European mindset of this period, while also showing that while Shakespeare was a product of his era--in that he consistently portrays Caliban as sub-human --he also accurately predicted that native peoples would not share this evaluation, and would rebel against imposed European rule.
