1. Theme: Despite the amount of power you have, you decide what you do with it, although there are different kinds of power, and depending on that power your abilities in a situation could change.

>Ariel: uses his power selflessly whilst helping himself and others

>Prospero: has the power of knowledge (social intelligence, magic, etc

2. Theme: Knowledge can determine the power you have, although knowledge can be limited to specific environments, situations, and personal abilities.

>Gonzalo: Reasonable, level-headed, perspective

>Caliban: about the island

>Ariel: Magic, Sees all in the background

>Prospero: reads a lot, magic, social intellect, rule

3. Theme: The perspective that one has on a situation changes the ability to act in that event, however depending on whether it is a good or bad perspective it can influence the outcome of the situation

>Propsero has the most perspective

>Meranda has the least perspective, maybe it's a good thing because she hasn't been ruined by the evils of the world

Despite the amount of power you have, you decide what you do with it, although there are different kinds of power, and depending on that power your abilities in a situation could change. Based on your power, and what type of power it holds will affect the outcome of the situation presented to a person. An example of this would be towards the beginning of The Tempest when royal people and sailors were on the boat during the storm. Gonzalo said, "The King and Prince [are] at prayers. Let’s assist them, for our case is as theirs, (Shakespeare 1.1.54-55). To further define what Gonzalo said, he means the royal people were frightened, because of the knowledge that they lacked, whereas the mariners were not as afraid because they were able to stabilize their emotions and use their knowledge to their advantage.

Knowledge can determine the power you have; however, knowledge can be limited to specific environments, situations, and personal abilities. Depending on the situation the amount of knowledge needed in order to find success varies on what that situation is and what skills you might need to deal with it. An example of this type of power caused by knowledge would be the situation of Ariel. Ariel is a being with lots of knowledge about the world around him and is very aware to the point where he can tell Prospero what he wants to know. When Prospero summoned Ariel, Ariel responded with "I come / To answer thy best pleasure," showing that he is willing to help and share the knowledge he has (Shakespeare 1.2.224-225). Later in the conversation, it is shown that Ariel is someone with great knowledge because he goes into detail about the people who got washed ashore.

>ariels monaluauge as a harpy

you three are sinners

Destiny has power over human fates

you don't deserve to be alive

you are mad, not upset but crazy

remember that you three did supplant Prospero to the sea

they are punished for banishing Miranda and Prospero

> How Prospero was using his power

he is using his power because he used his morals to justify what he was doing and because he had so much power he feels as though he is obligated to get revenge on Antionio and justifies what he did because of that.

> Gonzalo wasn't punished

>caliubans plan

steal his magic (books)

then kill him

Power Theme: Power is something that can easily be abused when someone has too much of it, however, people will justify the actions they take due to the amount of power they have.

Being power-hungry can corrupt those around you, especially when they are willing to go as far as they need to in order to obtain that power

Evidence: When Caliban is making a plan to kill Prospero, Stephano chimes in and says "I will kill this man. His daughter and I will be king and queen," he does this because he wants to hold a higher position in power and he believed that the only way to do that was to kill Prospero (Shakespeare 3.2.116-117).

# data[].attributes.body
Perspective Theme: Once someone has an immense amount of power it can affect how they choose to justify their decisions, regardless of whether or not they are truly justifiable.

Evidence: When Ariel, who works for Prospero tells Alonso, Sebastion, and Antionio, "I have made you mad; / And even with such-like valor, men hang and drown / Their proper selves," it proves that Prospero is abusing his power by justifying the idea that Ariel is go insane to get Prospero's revenge (Shakespeare 3.3.75-77).
