About Caliban's Voice
In Shakespeare's Tempest, Caliban says to Miranda and Prospero: ". . . you taught me language, and my profit on't Is, I know how to curse. " With this statement, he gives voice to an issue that lies at the centre of post-colonial studies. Can Caliban own Prospero's language? Can he use it to do more than curse? . . .
