After reading, respond to this prompt:
In The Tempest, Shakespeare writes about a society ruled by a monarchy. In this
society, it was extremely difficult for members of the lower class to rise in social
status or power. Antonio and Sebastian are part of the monarchy, but they want to
rise even higher than their current positions. Describe how Antonio has advanced
and how Sebastian plans to advance in status and power. Then, explain how their
actions are mirrored in Act III in the subplot involving Stephano and Caliban.
