I think the theme is usurping power 1- "Wicked Duke Antonio tries to get Sebastian to kill the king for his crown."(Shakespeare 30)  2- "He that dies pays all depts."(Stephano 45). 3-  "But Sabastian and Duke Antonio still plan to kill king Alonso."(Shakspear 46). I think if they kill then that would stand as the revenge and usurping power.

Adam             The theme of the play is revenge. I think it is revenge because In the story on (Shakesphere 30) it says "I can imagine a croun upon thy head. My other reason I think it is revenge is because in (Shakesphere43) it says "Bite him to death." My last reason is it says "can lay to bed forever"(Shakesphere 32).

Brooklyn and Cassidy: We think the theme of The Tempest is getting revenge. In the text, Prospero says, "My high charms work, and these, mine enemies, now in my power" (Shakespeare 48). Propero also says, "Let them be haunted soundly!" (Shakespeare 54). Caliban said, "Let's do the murder first" (Shakespeare 54). All of these quotes prove that someone is wanting revenge.

Marissa and Aleksa- On page 18, Miranda asks her father why he caused the storm, "I pray you, sir, your reason for raising this sea-storm?" This shows that prospero caused the storm on purpose probably for revenge...Also on page 19, Prospero tells Ariel that they still have more work to do, "Ariel, 'thy charge exactly is preformed. But there's more work." Maybe that leftover work is revenge...? Caliban is also a character who wants revenge, he growls to himself on page 21, "I must obey, his art is of such power." This shows that hes unhappy with what he's doing, and he also has to do a lot of work and is treated poorly.

The theme is mainly revenge because Prospero wants revenge, and Caliban wants revenge so we think the quote that gives proof is "Let them be hunted soundly!" (Shakespeare 54) Another quote of proof is when Duke Antonio says, "When I rear my hand, do you the like, to fall it on Gonzalo." (Shakespeare 31)

Ben and Dylan- We think the theme is usurping power. 1. Sebastian and Duke Antonio try to kill King Alonso. 2.Caliban, Trinclou, and Stephono are trying to kill Prospero. 3. Prospero trying to kill Duke Antonio. 1. "My strong imagination sees a crown dropping upon my head." (Shakespeare 30). 2.  "I'll bear him no more sticks but follow thee, thou wondrous man!" (Shakespeare 38). 3. "Hast thou performed the tempest that I bade thee?" (Shakespeare 18).

We think that the theme is Usurping power.  1. Propsero trying to take Antoinos place as Duke."In act one he crashed his ship" 2. Sebastian and Antonio are trying to usurp power from King Alonso, by killing him!"In act 3 they tryed to murder Kig Alonso" 3. Caliban is trying to usurp power from his master Prospero."In act 5 Caliban went to Prospero's cave to murder him(Prospero)"

I think the theme is to usurp power- When reading The Tempest we found lots of examples of different characters trying to usurp power. In act 4: Stepano, Trinclo, and Caliban are trying to kill Prospero because Caliban wants to usurp power. Stepano says "I do begin to have bloody thoughts."(Shakespeare 53). Also, in act 3&4:  Duke Antonio and Sebastian are plotting to murder King Alnso to try and usurp power.  In act 3: Duke Antonio says " Where lies that? Here lies your brother, whom I, with this obedient steel.... can lay to bed for ever."(Shakespeare 32) And, in act 3, Sebastian says "The next advantage will take thoroughly." (Shakespeare 46) All of these characters wanted to usurp power from another character.

Jacob and Tyler- We think that the theme is to usurp power from others and example is on page 30 Duke Antonio says"My strong imagination sees a crown dropping upon thy head." This shows that Duke Antonio wants to usurp power from King Alonzo. Another example is Caliban, Trinculo, and Stephano want to kill Prospero. A third example is Prospero wants to get back to the throne he wants to usurp the power back.

The theme I chose was revenge. The first quote is, "All infections on Prosper fall and make him a disease (shakespeare, 34)" This shows Caliban dislikes Prosper and would want revenge against him. After Trinculo calls Caliban a liar he says, "Bite him to death (shakespeare, 43)" This shows he wants revenge for being called a liar. Last, Stephano says, "Monster I will kill this man. His daughter and I will be king and queen.(Shakespeare, 44)" This shows that Caliban wants to kill Prospero as revenge for disliking him and taking the spot as king. That is why I think the theme is revenge.  - Allie Lane

Hunter, Banks and Steven think that the theme is usurping power because Prospero wants to usurp power from Duke Antonio's. Caliban wants to usurp power from Prospero with the help of Stephono and Trinculo. Then finally Duke Antonio wants to usurp power from King Alonso.

I think that the theme is usurping power. As we are reading the tempest we have lots of examples of being power hungry. Also people plotting to usurp other peoples power. In act 4 while Stephano, Trinculo,and Caliban try to murder Prospero because Caliban wants to usurp his power "I begin to think bloody thoughts" (Shakespeare 53). Also in act 2 & 3 Duke Antonio and Sebastian are plotting to kill King Alonso to try and usurp his power. In act 3 Duke Antonio says "Where lies that? Here lies your brother, whom I with this obedient steel.....can lay to bed forever" (Shakespeare 32). Also in act 3 Sebastian says "The next advantage we will take thoroughly" (Shakespeare 46). These characters all want to usurp another characters power.

Collin                                The reason I think that the theme of the play is to usurp power . One Prospero is trying to take Duke Antonio's place as the Duke. Two Caliban is trying to get revenge and usurp power from his master Prospero. Three Sebastian and Antonio are trying to kill King Alonso to get his power so that Sebastian can be King and Antonio thinks that since he helping him be king he thinks that Sebastian will have to pay him back with something.

We think that the theme of the play "The Tempest" would be getting revenge and greed. We think this is the theme of the play because Prospero is trying to get back the power that he once had by getting his daughter and the prince married. In the text, Prospero says, "My high charms work, and these, mine enemies, now in my power." (Shakespeare 48). Prospero also says, "Let them be haunted soundly!" (Shakespeare 54). Caliban said, "Let's do the murder first." (Shakespear 54) All of these quotes prove that someone wants revenge.                                                                                                                                                                                                         -Cassidy and Brooklyn

I think the theme of the play is Revenge. To quote Caliban,"All infections lie on Prosper making him a disease," (Shakespeare 34.)Showing he thinks of Prospero very poorly,as he compares him with a disease. After Caliban thinks Trinculo said he lies,Caliban says,"Bite him to death,"(Shakespeare 43) Which shows he wants to get revenge because he said he lied. Finally,Stephano has said,"Monster,I will kill this man.His daughter and I will be king and queen,"(Shakespeare 44.) He is going to kill him because Caliban says he wants revenge and he wants to be king.                                -Reese
