Using The Tempest notes

Start with The Tempest - Plot if you want an overview: it follows the play from the first act to the epilogue. For a closer look at the opening, the notes on Act 1, Scene 1 cover the crew in the storm, while another set of notes on that scene lists ideas including power and control.

Other notes group quotations around themes or focus on characters. Key Quotes in The Tempest offers a place to look for lines, while the notes on Prospero bring together scenes and quotations.
