The similarities and differences between The Tempest by Aimé Césaire and The Tempest by William Shakespeare give the reader the idea that this is a political response. From the way in which the two titles of these literary works differ, an idea of ​​a concept is proposed. Yet they share a similar story, after someone reads A Tempest: a different perspective is gained. A Tempest is in fact considered a writing of the post-colonial period and it can be acquired and proven by the forms in which Aimé Césaire depicts the characters and changes their personality and traits, the periods and the acquisition of language , and the way in which power is used reveals that it is indeed a political response from a postcolonial perspective. Shakespeare's The Tempest and Césaire's A Tempest differ in the way they are expressed. From the words the and a, the whole concept of storm is completely changed. The definition of the word storm could mean two things: a violent storm of wind, frequently accompanied by rain, snow or hail and/or a furious agitation, commotion or tumult; a tumult. Shakespeare's The Tempest is correlated with the first definition while Césaire's A Tempest is more closely associated with the second. Shakespeare's The Tempest begins with a storm and on a ship [A tumultuous noise of thunder and lightning heard] (Shakespeare 1667-69) while Caesar's begins with Caliban shouting: “Uhuru! (Césaire 1721) which means freedom. These examples give us the concept of storm and tumult. The period in which The Tempest was written is the Age of Exploration between the mid-1400s and late 1500s. The discovery and colonization of distant lands, these years were filled... ... middle of paper......Lebanon called him a "colony addict". (Césaire 1727) Also, Césaire passed it off as revenge for Prospero. It was another conquest which was not really an act of revenge. In the end the reader sees him with his reasoning on why he forgave them. Ariel was always too docile and was always called my dear Ariel by Prospero. While in Caliban, the black slave was horribly treated and threatened. Prospero told Ariel that who cares what this villain is plotting against me? All the nobility of Italy, Naples and Milan, now united, will protect my person. » (Césaire 1723) There is no doubt that Césaire is trying to say no. Regardless, we Europeans always remain united, so he has nothing against me, he does not phase me, which is one of the main ideals of this political response. During slavery, Europeans had a lot of control over the fate of Africans, but there were still limits that caused a storm.
