Rus_ich [418]
Alleged madness

The passage from Act 3 Scene 4 has the recurring idea of  alleged madness.

Then, the passage shows Olivia desperately in love, thinking she is like Malvolio--going mad. Lastly, Antonio's friendship to Sebastian ( who was actually Cesario) was introduced. Antonio was made to seem mad from his misdirected loyalty.

Which production of Shakespeare's The Tempest is most clearly an interpretation?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

C. One that portrays Prospero as sympathetic towards Caliban.

Explanation:

When we "interpret" a piece of literature, this means that we are viewing the work from our own personal perspective. This can be close to the most accepted view, or it can differ significantly. Often, authors and directors create a new interpretation of the work in order to provide a new approach to a well-known work. In this case, option C is most clearly an interpretation. This is because it is the perspective that most differs from traditional understandings of the play.
