In 1964, I was Peter Alexander's graduate assistant, and I remember that he
used to insist that THE TEMPEST was a reflection of William Strachey's account
of a shipwreck on the Bermudas, and that the Virginia Company stands behind the
play. Isn't it only a little step to suggesting that Prospero is a colonist?
