What event in the play best parallels the practices of colonization? a.) caliban becomes friends w/ stephano and trinculo b.) prospero arrives on the island and kills the witch who opposes him c.) prospero manipulates his daughters feelings towards ferdinand d.) antonio overthrows his brother for his dukedom

B.) Prospero arrives on the island and kills the witch who opposes him.

The play The Tempest can be seen as a critique of the practice of colonization. In the play, Prospero arrives to the island. He is a symbol of the European colonizer. When he arrives, he kills the witch who opposes him, declares himself ruler, and turns Ariel and Caliban into servants. While Ariel is loyal to him, Caliban hates Prospero, and believed him to be an undeserving tyrant. This situation symbolizes that of the colonies.
