Annotation:
	Reads Caliban as "an ironic counterpart of every character in The Tempest." Declares that "critics who reduce Caliban to the lame ideological cliché of the native oppressed in a colonial world fail to understand the concomitant dignity and abjection of the monster’s character, his irreducible complexity, and his ambiguity." English and Romanian summaries, 135.
