17 Th Century Act 1 Scene 1
953 wordsThe Tempests first scene is unlike most of the openings in Shakespeare's plays, in that it is very much action-oriented.

This statement can be made quite justifiably, due to the fact that all the events of Act 1 Scene 1 are recounted in the following scene, in the conversations between Miranda, Prospero and Ariel. Under ordinary ...
