Vero archetipo della cultura moderna, La tempesta, forse l’ultima opera scritta per intero da Shakespeare, è uno scrigno di significati. Grazie alla sua consuetudine con le pratiche di magia, Prospero, duca di Milano esiliato su un’isola deserta insieme alla candida figlia Miranda, riesce a vendicarsi dell’usurpatore, suo fratello Antonio, e del suo complice Alonso re di Napoli. Avversato dal subumano Caliban, servo diabolico e deforme, ma assecondato da Ariel, delicato spirito dell’aria, Prospero riprende infine il proprio ducato. Il matrimonio tra Miranda e Ferdinando, figlio di Alonso, stende un velo di riconciliazione sulla vicenda. Eterea come l’essenza di Ariel, profonda come la saggezza di Prospero, la commedia cela dietro la trama fiabesca una stupefacente ricchezza di spunti e motivi. Innumerevoli le interpretazioni critiche (d’impostazione filosofica, politica, religiosa, psicoanalitica, postcoloniale, neostoricistica, di gender…) che l’opera continua a suscitare. Ma forse La tempesta è “solo” la splendida favola della virtù, intesa come bellezza, integrità morale e generosità, che lotta contro la cattiveria e la volgarità. Nella recente versione cinematografica di Julie Taymor (2010) l’interpretazione di un Prospero al femminile è affidata al premio Oscar Helen Mirren.

Work Description

The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1610–11, and thought by many critics to be the last play that Shakespeare wrote alone. It is set on a remote island, where Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, plots to restore his daughter Miranda to her rightful place using illusion and skilful manipulation. He conjures up a storm, the eponymous tempest, to lure his usurping brother Antonio and the complicit King Alonso of Naples to the island. There, his machinations bring about the revelation of Antonio's lowly nature, the redemption of the King, and the marriage of Miranda to Alonso's son, Ferdinand.
