The plot was presumably inspired by William voyage manuscript, which reported a shipwreck during a trip to an English colony, led by a tempest in the Bermuda Triangle.
a. Just like in passages of the most probable inspiration for the plot of The Tempest was an allegory of hell.
b. The beginning of the plot evokes William Scratchey's report on an unruffled and tedious nautic trip to Virginia (currently part of the United States, then an English colony).
c. The play was a product of Shakespeare's great imagination towards the "New World". as there were no navigation reports until the premiere.
d. Historians claim that the role of Prospero was probably inspired by the popularity of Vasco da Gama in the Elizabethan society.
