Answer:
Analysis:
Prospero's long speech in scene 2 shows several of the contradictions inherent in Prospero's appearance and nature.
Prospero can be empathetic and calm, as shown when he gracefully allays Miranda's fears for the safety of the men; but, he is also angry and vengeful, when he speaks of his past and his brother's alleged treachery.
He calls his brother "perfidious," "false," and casts his brother as a villain when telling his history to his daughter. Paradoxically, Prospero also admits that it was his "being so retired" from his duties that "awaked an evil nature" in his brother, and his "trust did beget of [his brother] a falsehood" (I.ii.91-96).
