Perspective is a theme that can be seen throughout Act 2 and act 3. Perspective changes throughout different situations, and sometimes the end result will either be positive or negative.

This theme is exemplified through this quote. "My lord Sebastian, / The truth you speak doth lack some gentleness / And time to speak it in. You rub the sore / When you should bring the plaster" (Shakespeare 2.1.147-50). Gonzolo's positive perspective on being stranded makes him look for the good in life, while the others have a negative mindset and it is affecting their feelings.

It can also be seen when Prospero talks about being  "So glad of this as they I cannot be, / Who are surprised withal; but my rejoicing / At nothing can be more. I’ll to my book, / For yet ere suppertime must I perform / Much business appertaining" (Shakespeare 3.2.111-15). Little did Miranda and Ferdinand know that he was listening to their conversation.

In "The Tempest," Ariel's position as a spirit trapped by Prospero limits his freedom and forces him to obey Prospero's commands, displaying the theme of power and control in the play.

"I will be correspondent to command
And do my spriting gently.
Do so, and after two days
I will discharge thee."

Prospero reminded Ariel of how he was the master as a way to con Ariel into doing his wishes for him.

When somebody knows how to do something, they should be allowed to do it, even if they will need to be placed into power to do that thing. For example, the sailors in the book "The Tempest" knew how to pilot the boat while the royals didn't know how to. This can be seen in the quote below:

"Good, yet remember whom thou hast
aboard. None that I more love than myself. You are
a councilor; if you can command these elements
to silence, and work the peace of the present, we
will not hand a rope more. Use your authority. If
you cannot give thanks you have lived so long, and
make yourself ready in your cabin for the mischance
of the hour, if it so hap.—Cheerly, good
hearts!—Out of our way, I say! (Shakespeare 1.1.19-28)."

This shows how people can be ignorant if given power sometimes, and that while it may be hard to give up your ppower, it could be worth it at times.

In "The Tempest," Miranda's quick love for Ferdinand shows that she hasn't had much experience with the world. She sees the first-ever boy her age and fell for him immediately. It's likely because she's spent her whole life on the island alone with Prospero and Caliban, and hasn't been able to interact with other human beings.

"Why speaks my father so urgently? This
Is the third man that e’er I saw, the first
That e’er I sighed for. Pity move my father
To be inclined my way.
O, if a virgin,
And your affection not gone forth, I’ll make you
The Queen of Naples.
Soft, sir, one word more.
Aside. They are both in either’s powers. But this
swift business
I must uneasy make, lest too light winning
Make the prize light. To Ferdinand. One word
more. I charge thee
That thou attend me. Thou dost here usurp
He draws, and is charmed from moving.
The name thou ow’st not, and hast put thyself
Upon this island as a spy, to win it
From me, the lord on ’t."

Overall, Prospero is the guy with the worldly experience, while Ferdinand and Miranda have less experience with love and mature feelings,

Prospero has learned not to trust people after his own brother betrayed him. He is telling his life story of old dukedom to inform Miranda, so that she knows what actual people are like.

"So dear the love my people bore me, nor set
A mark so bloody on the business, but
With colors fairer painted their foul ends.
In few, they hurried us aboard a bark,
Bore us some leagues to sea, where they prepared
A rotten carcass of a butt, not rigged,
Nor tackle, sail, nor mast; the very rats
Instinctively have quit it."

While Prospero speaks of the great kindnesses his old people took to give him a boat, he also was trying to make sure that Miranda understood what he was talking about; that people couldn't be trusted. He was sharing his knowledge with her.
