Where is Prospero originally from?
Prospero is the rightful Duke of Milan, whose usurping brother, Antonio, had put him (with his three-year-old daughter, Miranda) to sea on a "rotten carcass" of a boat to die, twelve years before the play begins. Prospero and Miranda had survived and found exile on a small island.
Why did Prospero neglect his worldly ends?
In The Tempest, Prospero admits that he neglected his duties as duke in favor of his books: “I, thus neglecting worldly ends, all dedicated / To closeness and the bettering of my mind” (I. ii). ... The Tempest marks the last play that Shakespeare wrote by himself, and as such, represents a sort of farewell to his audience.
