Answer:
Why does Miranda ask questions regarding her father's past?
How does Miranda react to this tale? What is Prospero’s purpose in telling her this tale?
After listening to the tale of her past, Miranda is intensely moved. She feels sorry to think that she must have caused enough trouble to her father Prospero in bringing her up. She feels that her heart bleeds to think of this hard life that Prospero lived on the island. She begins to weep. She asks her father why the conspirator, her uncle, did not destroy them. Prospero tells her that he could not dare to kill them because the people of Milan loved him very much. Antonio did not want to take the risk of shedding their blood. Prospero’s purpose in telling all this to Miranda was to acquaint her with her real identity. He knew that Miranda was likely to be attracted to Ferdinand and as he had planned, she was likely to be Ferdinand’s wife. He was thus preparing her for the coming events. His purpose was that Miranda must know her royal parentage.
