Annotation:
	Juxtaposes Prospero characters from Tempest and Margaret Atwood’s adaptation Hag-Seed (q.v.), considering how texts explore legitimacy of power and extent of their control over others. Argues ruler figures in both texts distort perception of reality through mirror effect, discussed in terms of Catherine Belsey’s exploration of trompe-l’oeil in Venus and Adonis (q.v.).English abstract, 9.
