The analysis explores the character of Sycorax in Shakespeare's "The Tempest," arguing that her portrayal challenges traditional gender roles by aligning her with male characters, suggesting potential equality between genders when race and gender are not viewed hierarchically. The paper critiques Julie Taymor's film adaptation for neglecting Sycorax, claiming her omission undermines a feminist perspective. This examination highlights the complexities of female representation in literature and popular culture, emphasizing the need for a more inclusive discourse.
