THE TEMPEST - WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE KARTONIERT (TB)

Performed variously as escapist fantasy  celebratory fiction  and political allegory  The
Tempest is one of the plays in which Shakespeare's genius as a poetic dramatist found its
fullest expression. Significantly  it was placed first when published in the First Folio of
1623  and is now generally seen as the playwright's most penetrating statement about his art.
Stephen Orgel's wide-ranging introduction examines changing attitudes to The Tempest  and
reassesses the evidence behind the various readings. He focuses on key characters and their
roles and relationships  as well as on the dramatic  historical  and political context  finding
the play to be both more open and more historically determined than traditional views have
allowed.
