Cinderella Story.

- Abstract
Finally, after Perdita, comes that epitome of grace and compassionate action, Miranda, who moves out ultimately from the magical island milieu of The Tempest - and from the protective ambience of a flawed father - again, to re-unite warring families and city states. After Marina, in The Winter's Tale, comes the "lost" maiden, Perdita, who finds her innocent yet utterly assured way to repair the rifts within her kin, and between the states ruled by alienated fathers. There are a surprising number of young women like this in Shakespeare's plays and he makes plain, in his last dramas, that it is they who pose the right questions, and are the embodied answers, to all the fractured relations in family and realm.
