thanks for the analysis. I just watched the play while reading it (not a native speaker, so, it helps) and couldn't grasp what it was really about. Great video. Btw, he uses the Patagonian (Argentinian) Setebos as Caliban's god. So that's a reference to the New World.

Excellent Analysis! Just wanted to ask if you had any thoughts or explanantion for when Ariel says "Do you love me, master, No?" (4.1.48). Seeing as Ariel is constantly trying to gain freedom and agency and seems to be a bit frustrated with Prospero, him asking Prospero for love seems ... a bit out of character.. Thanks!

I always read the line with the meaning “Have I finally done enough for you to appreciate me?” with the implication that doing enough and being valuable enough to Prospero will finally come with a reward of Freedom in Ariel’s mind. There are many kinds and expressions of love; I think Ariel intends his as being valued for his usefulness (and hopefully rewarded). He has a hope and a promise of release and so he’s definitely trying to please Prospero / stay on his good (or loving) side.

Amazing dude You are a scholor in tempest Just a quick doubt if you may When in act 4, prospero says to ferdinand that heis giving him 1/3rd of his life, What supposidly can be prosperos other 2/3rd of hia lifffe???
@Nancenotes3 жыл бұрын
It's up for debate. It's possibly 1/3 = his life as a duke, 1/3 = his life as a mage/magician, 1/3 = his daughter's life/his role as a father or, to put it another way his political authority, his magical power, and his investment in his posterity. That was my take. Alternatively, scholarship offers the uncertain possibility of 1/3 just meaning "a big/important part of my life" or 1/3 meaning "the amount of my life I've invested in rearing her" (see Hulme & Sherman's footnotes in Norton or Mowat & Werstine's footnotes in Folger, or basically any other footnotes).

The centre of Prospero's life is Miranda who he describes as his soul. If we look at life, we see a beginning, middle and the end, where the beginning is rarely remembered, and the end but a scheduled reflection life's memories in the middle. We are too weak to move in old age, too flexible and volatile in early life. We then can say he gives the most important aspect of his life, the foundation to which orders the first and last parts of his life. This can wisely be understood from Archimedes' Lever, "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world." It is the centre point that yields the power and influences to all the rest, thus whether in physics below or the metaphysics above it is reliable that love to Prospero is the most important aspect which he expresses the 1/3 aspect. What do we see with 3? We form a triangle. If we split that equilateral triangle into the point at the centre we get the point at the centre which yields the power of leverage. What greater leverage than that of love? Yet, that is something that Prospero is to learn, still more in silence.
