The Tempest :)

According to the Tempest Prospero is manipulating reality. Prospero does this by twisting the stories around so people do not know what really happen. By doing this he can get any kind of reaction out of the people that he wants. He also has a servant who can obviously make things happen when he wants them too. For instance the storm. He made it seem like it was real and everyone believed him. He also only told one side of the story and left the other part out. He only says he was pushed out of power by an evil force. This make Miranda think differently about who he is. Right now she thinks of him a s a good guy that was treated bad, but she does not know the other side of him. Miranda tells Prospero how she feels about him, but with a few words he can totally brain wash her into thinking totally different about him. For example Prospero’s personality shows when he causes problems between Miranda and Ferdinand. Prospero says, “They are both in ether's powers, but this swift business I must uneasy make lest too light winning make the prize light.” By saying this he is explaing if how, if he does not cause problems they won't appreciate his love. He makes up these dumb lies about Ferdinand so that the couple will have to go through turmoil. He also puts Miranda in hard situations. For example when she has to choose between her father and Ferdinand. He does this because he thinks it will help their relationship. He uses his manipulative personality and words to get change reality just like in 1984.
