Themes and symbols in the Tempest
- Illusion of
justice.
- Prospero claims to have been
treated in an unjust way when he
was usurped from the throne in
Milan
- Although his treatment of
other characters is
hypocritical as he works to
right the wrongs that have
been done to him without
any concern for how he is
treating others.

- Men v Monsters
- The other characters refer
to Caliban as a monster,
"got by the devil himself"

often more human than characters
such as Prospero.

- The play opens with a
scene in water: The

himself and at the end Prospero says he's going to drown
his book. The water is a symbol for the sacrifices each man
has to make.
