- Abstract:
  Discusses ways in which the plot of William Shakespeare's play 'The Tempest' insists on the divorce of the aristocratic myths of heroic and pastoral in what is the character Prospero's pastoral. Transformation of an island into a pastoral retreat associated with the repression of pastoral in its traditional guise; Prospero's failure to dispute Caliban's claim to the island.
