To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has not the intensity of Macbeth, Lear, Hamlet, Othello. In these plays Shakespeare created at a white-heat of emotion, at the intensest concentration of intellect. This can hardly be said of The Tempest. There are flashes of his highest inspiration but it is not sustained. The Tem- pest shows us a brief reluming, a brief recalescence, before the final extinction of light and heat. It sounds a note of melancholy, a melancholy that always 3 To a certain extent we find a parallel in the work o...f Dickens. Here also we have a difference not merely between the good and the less good, but between the excellent and the execrable.
n8 WILL O' THE WISP attaches to a thing done for the last time, and which we feel, even before we are told that here the magic ends. Melancholy is the note of The Tempest, and melancholy is not compatible with the intensest excite- ment. But if the critics are right, and I think they are, it has, alone among the plays, the absorbing inter- est that in it Shakespeare is purposely telling us some- thing- about himself.
