    “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma as Drama in The Tempest Jeffrey R. Wilson The dramatis personae of The Tempest casts Caliban as “asavageand deformed slave.”1 Since the mid-twentieth century, critics have scrutinized Caliban’s status as a “slave,” developing a riveting post-colonial reading of the play, but I want to address the pairing of “savage and deformed.”2 If not Shakespeare’s own mixture of moral and corporeal abominations, “savage and deformed” is the first editorial comment on Caliban, the “and” here Stigmatized as such, Caliban’s body never comes to us .”ס“ working as an uninterpreted. It is always already laden with meaning. But what, if we try to strip away meaning from fact, does Caliban actually look like? The ambiguous and therefore amorphous nature of Caliban’s deformity has been a perennial problem in both dramaturgical and critical studies of The Tempest at least since George Steevens’s edition of the play (1793), acutely since Alden and Virginia Vaughan’s Shakespeare’s Caliban: A Cultural His- tory (1993), and enduringly in recent readings by Paul Franssen, Julia Lup- ton, and Mark Burnett.3 Of all the “deformed” images that actors, artists, and critics have assigned to Caliban, four stand out as the most popular: the devil, the monster, the humanoid, and the racial other. First, thanks to Prospero’s yarn of a “demi-devil” (5.1.272) or a “born devil” (4.1.188) that was “got by the devil himself” (1.2.319), early critics like John Dryden and Joseph War- ton envisioned a demonic Caliban.4 In a second set of images, the reverbera- tions of “monster” in The Tempest have led writers and artists to envision Caliban as one of three prodigies: an earth creature, a fish-like thing, or an animal-headed man.

ARGOSY (ARchitecture for Going to the Outer solar SYstem) addresses anew the problem of human exploration to the outer planets. The ARGOSY architecture approach is scalable in size and power so that increasingly distant destinations—the systems of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—can be reached with the same crew size and time require- ments. To enable such missions, achievable technologies with appropriate margins must be used to construct a viable technical approach at the systems level.

  • Red Material on the Large Moons of Uranus: Dust from the Irregular Satellites?
    Red material on the large moons of Uranus: Dust from the irregular satellites? Richard J. Cartwright1, Joshua P. Emery2, Noemi Pinilla-Alonso3, Michael P. Lucas2, Andy S. Rivkin4, and David E. Trilling5. 1Carl Sagan Center, SETI Institute; 2University of Tennessee; 3University of Central Florida; 4John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory; 5Northern Arizona University. Abstract The large and tidally-locked “classical” moons of Uranus display longitudinal and planetocentric trends in their surface compositions. Spectrally red material has been detected primarily on the leading hemispheres of the outer moons, Titania and Oberon. Furthermore, detected H2O ice bands are stronger on the leading hemispheres of the classical satellites, and the leading/trailing asymmetry in H2O ice band strengths decreases with distance from Uranus. We hypothesize that the observed distribution of red material and trends in H2O ice band strengths results from infalling dust from Uranus’ irregular satellites. These dust particles migrate inward on slowly decaying orbits, eventually reaching the classical satellite zone, where they collide primarily with the outer moons. The latitudinal distribution of dust swept up by these moons should be fairly even across their southern and northern hemispheres. However, red material has only been detected over the southern hemispheres of these moons, during the Voyager 2 flyby of the Uranian system (subsolar latitude ~81ºS). Consequently, to test whether irregular satellite dust impacts drive the observed enhancement in reddening, we have gathered new ground-based data of the now observable northern hemispheres of these moons (sub-observer latitudes ~17 – 35ºN). Our results and analyses indicate that longitudinal and planetocentric trends in reddening and H2O ice band strengths are broadly consistent across both southern and northern latitudes of these moons, thereby supporting our hypothesis.

  • Sycorax Character Profiles
    SYCORAX WANING: CHARACTER PROFILES By Russell Norris 2011 SYCORAX Background: Sycorax is a potent old witch of indeterminate age. She is banished to a remote island 18 years before The Tempest takes place and is dead long before Shakespeare’s tale begins there. To avoid execution in Algiers, Sycorax lets the sea-god Setebos impregnate her with an unholy child. She gives birth to her son Caliban, a half-human monster, alone on the island – where she lives out the closing years of her life. Sycorax is a powerful witch who draws her power from the moon via her god Setebos. While she can channel these dark lunar energies, she can’t necessarily control them. There is evidence that Shakespeare based Sycorax on the sorceress Medea from Greek mythology and I aim to colour Sycorax’s backstory with elements from Medea’s life. Among other heinous crimes, Medea murdered her own brother and children. In ancient Greece, murder of one’s own family was the most awful crime of all and three special demons were reserved to punish it: The Furies. Sycorax, for the murder of her brother and children in her youth, has been hunted by The Furies for most of her life. She has grown old moving from country to country and now, on this desolate island in the middle of the sea, The Furies are finally about to catch up with her. The “Medea” backstory: It’s worth going over the Medea legend just to fill in a few details: readers will not necessarily need to be familiar with this legend, but hopefully Sycorax Waning will inspire them to go away and find out more.

  • Irregular Satellites of the Giant Planets 411
    Nicholson et al.: Irregular Satellites of the Giant Planets 411 Irregular Satellites of the Giant Planets Philip D. Nicholson Cornell University Matija Cuk University of British Columbia Scott S. Sheppard Carnegie Institution of Washington David Nesvorný Southwest Research Institute Torrence V. Johnson Jet Propulsion Laboratory The irregular satellites of the outer planets, whose population now numbers over 100, are likely to have been captured from heliocentric orbit during the early period of solar system history. They may thus constitute an intact sample of the planetesimals that accreted to form the cores of the jovian planets. Ranging in diameter from ~2 km to over 300 km, these bodies overlap the lower end of the presently known population of transneptunian objects (TNOs). Their size distributions, however, appear to be significantly shallower than that of TNOs of comparable size, suggesting either collisional evolution or a size-dependent capture probability. Several tight orbital groupings at Jupiter, supported by similarities in color, attest to a common origin followed by collisional disruption, akin to that of asteroid families. But with the limited data available to date, this does not appear to be the case at Uranus or Neptune, while the situa- tion at Saturn is unclear. Very limited spectral evidence suggests an origin of the jovian irregu- lars in the outer asteroid belt, but Saturn’s Phoebe and Neptune’s Nereid have surfaces domi- nated by water ice, suggesting an outer solar system origin. The short-term dynamics of many of the irregular satellites are dominated by large-amplitude coupled oscillations in eccentricity and inclination and offer several novel features, including secular resonances.
