Colonialism

Colonialism began much earlier with the discovery of America. It was a big issue during Shakespeare's time. The opening up of new frontiers
and new land being discovered stimulated European information. Shakespeare's imagination has taken this into account. Exploration of new geographical spaces and control of those lands by the explorers is
basically what we know by colonialism.
Prospero; ''This thing of darkness, I call my own''
