Despite Shakespeare’s tendency to characterize virtue through outward beauty‚ in The Tempest he deftly shows us nobility is not always inherent and the beast in all has hope of being tamed.

In Elizabethan times‚ women were perceived ruled by their emotions and therefore irrational. In contrast‚ men were ruled by reason and were stalwart.
