Paper Summary:

This paper analyzes whether post colonial readings of Shakespeare's drama "The Tempest" address the 'right' issues as compared with traditional readings. The paper explains the play as a justification of colonialism and brings the argument of traditionalists that 21st Century views should not be imposed on the play.

From the Paper:

"William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest" presents an interesting study of the critical controversies that often arise when works of literature are reconsidered in a twenty-first century context instead of as simply a product of the time in which they were produced. Indeed much debate has centered around readings that posit "The Tempest" as a text concerned almost exclusively with the justification of colonialism."
