 * Close Reading-The Tempest & "Of the Cannibals" **

Milania Lullo-Orchard Park When I teach Shakespeare's, "The Tempest," I have AP students read the attached essay, "Of the Cannibals" from Michel Eyquem de Montaigne because this is the actual document that Shakespeare used as his source when he created the "monster" character of Caliban, which is a loose anagram of cannibal. Caliban is Shakespeare's character in "The Tempest" that illuminates the problem that Shakespeare and Montaigne saw in Europe that men were calling others barbarous just because they are different.
