Hello all! We will meet online for a discussion of The Tempest by William Shakespeare. (Please read all of it, prior to the meeting.)

Per Oxford Classics, "Performed variously as escapist fantasy, celebratory fiction, and political allegory, The Tempest is one of the plays in which Shakespeare's genius as a poetic dramatist found its fullest expression. Significantly, it was placed first when published in the First Folio of 1623, and is now generally seen as the playwright's most penetrating statement about his art.
