How Shakspere Came to Write the Tempest

How Shakespeare Came to Write the Tempest is a classic Shakespeare studies text by Rudyard Kipling. Mr. Kipling's brilliant reconstruction of the genesis of the 'Tempest' may remind us how often that play has excited the creative fancy of its readers. It has given rise to many imitations, adaptations, and sequels. Fletcher copied its storm, its desert island, and its woman who had never seen a man.
