"The Tempest, written towards the close of Shakespeare's career, is a work of fantasy and courtly romance. The play is also one of poetic atmospheres and perils at sea. It ends on a note of serenity and joy, but it also shows much of the author's mature reflection on life itself. The present edition of the drama comprises: • Background Information on Shakespeare's Concept of Romance and Comedy • Original Text along with Modern Version, Annotations and Explanations • Chapterwise Detailed Summary of the Play • Comprehensive Discussion on Important Textual Aspects • Important University Questions with Answers • Selected Literary Criticism"
