Dryden and Davenant, The Tempest, or the Enchanted Island (Pages 12-15)

Description

Page 12: Charged struggles between Caliban and Prospero (above) are upstaged by focus on Prospero’s daughters’ introductions to men. Here Prospero’s added daughter, Dorinda, enters for the first time (below).

Page 13: Miranda and Dorinda reveal their ignorance of and fascination with men.

Page 14-15: Over the next two pages, the play’s villains – unlike Shakespeare’s – are wracked by guilt and vow lifelong “penitence.”
