 In what way are Miranda and Ferninand like characters in a fairy tale? Why might Shakespeare portray them in this way?

 In what way are Miranda and Ferninand like characters in a fairy tale? Why might Shakespeare portray them in this way?

# data[].attributes.body
They are like characters in a fairy tale because I believe that one of the big themes in this play is that "Love binds people together- even enemies". I believe that Shakespeare presents them like fairy tale characters is because it is a good scenario in which that the message can apply. Many people don't believe that in "real life" (crashing a boat onto a magical island isn't necessarily real) that love doesn't do much, but in fairy tales it always works out. I think Shakespeare was trying to combine the fairy tale perfectness into the "real life" situation to help people get a better grasp of the message.

What is Prospero's emotional state at the end of Act I? What might be the reason for it?

What is Prospero's emotional state at the end of Act I? What might be the reason for it?

# data[].attributes.body
Prospero seems worried and on guard towards the end of Act I. The reason is most likely Ferdinand; He [Prospero] is unsure about Ferdinand and does not trust him, especially since he is part of the group of "traitors". I think that he is afraid of losing Miranda to Ferdinand, since Ferdinand had already started proclaiming his love for her.

# data[].attributes.body
Ariel became Prospero's servant because Prospero helped him out of a tree, and asked him to be his servant. Caliban became Prospero's servant because he tried to force himself onto Miranda, so Prospero enslaved him. Ariel is a higher ranking servant than Caliban.
