Main Themes of The Tempest


  • Power - the lack of it and fight for it as well as use of it by prospero/The King etc.
  • Control - of the Island, of love, of servants, of magic.
  • Betrayal - plotting against masters and enemies e.g Caliban and Pospero.
  • Revenge - This ties in with Power and control and getting it back through means of revenge
  • Forgiveness - combined with resolution at the end of the play
