The Tempest Act 1:2 The first of the play’s sub-plots continues the theme of usurpation introduced in Act I scene 2. There is a clear parallel between Antonio’s coup against his brother Prospero‚ Sebastian’s pledge to murder his brother‚ and the plot devised by Caliban‚ Stephano and Trinculo against Prospero.
