Answer:

A. The fickle nature of justice and the desire for control over others.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "The Tempest" revolves around the story of Prospero and his daughter 'exiled' to an island and forcibly removed from his dukedom. The story delves into the themes of power dynamics, the struggle for authority, love, enslavement, and class structure.

After his dukedom was taken by his brother, Prospero exhibited the need to have power over others by enslaving Caliban and Ariel through manipulation, deception, and charm. This shows how human is so desirous of having some form of control over others and the fickleness of what is just.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
