F text was believed to have come down to us without the intervention of shorthand or memorial
reconstruction. He sends Kent to alert Regan of the problem and to let her know of his approaching
arrival. She simply states that she loves Lear as much as any daughter should, no more, no less. This
printing was a quarto or pocket-size book known today as “Q1.” It is remarkable among early printed
Shakespeare plays for its hundreds of lines of verse that are either erroneously divided or set as
prose; in addition, some of its prose is set as verse. Hate is also strong, concentrated in the strange
character of Edmund. Plus Othello is the most musical of the four tragedies and arguably, Dave has
the most musical (however annoying to me) voice of the group. - Slayer would ressemble Macbeth in
the dark, foreboding atmosphere in their music, the anger and rage at the universe best expressed on
their masterpiece, God Hates Us All. - King Lear would be be represented by Metallica in my
opinion. When Cordelia says nothing, he also utters nothing and adds that if she has nothing else to
say about his question of love, then he too has nothing to say. I think, with The Tempest and Hamlet
and maybe Macbeth, this is my favourite Shakespeare play. Lear puts his faith in his remaining
daughters to take care of him now they have his throne. However, this is literally the lull before the
storm. And in some ways, the audience can understand this, at least at first- it is hard for Lear to let
go of his power, the next generation has to be clear about the change of command. While in recent
years the tradition has been for student and alumni directors and actors etcetera, this production
nods back to the institution’s origins under Professor Sydney Musgrove in which his 1963 Hamlet
was a co-production with long defunct Grafton Theatre company. Gloucester returns from fetching
supplies and informs everyone that Lear's life is in danger. Speak again. 1.1 215-219. France: This is

Cornwall's own servants pulls his sword to defend the Earl. And of course, we all know a few
Gonerils, Regans, and Edmunds. The two have made it known that Lear will have no authority for
the duration of his life. A surrealistic bargain that includes the old King Lear exchanging land for the
love declarations of his three daughters in the opening scene triggers a chain of events that combine a
peculiar mix of humorous absurdity, demented remorse and virulent wrath that escalates to a tragic
climax. At the outset, Lear is a narcissistic, bullying despot. The crown jewel of the piece has to be
Lear’s infamous speech in the third act, raging into the wind against his daughters. Is it clear to you
that my Lear’s fate may indeed be the fate of any man, of Yours. The loyal Kent attempts to change

might be my darkest vision yet. The fool was trying to tell King Lear that there was trouble amongst
his daughters. In other words, they are anything but normal and caring. The essential themes of King
Lear were examined with ease through complex literary devices. The two older daughters, Goneril
and Regan, are more astute in their proclamations of love and devotion, telling their father what they
know he wants to hear. Behind them are shining lampposts that dot the paths behind the set that by
happy accident seem extend out and back, enlarging the vista. Irony, motifs, and imagery are all
used to great effect in the play, adding depth and complexity to the story and helping to bring the
characters to life. That these people have the right to vote and to procreate is frightening to me.
LEAR: Gather 'round daughters, ya daddy is old af and wants to retire. We can see ourselves in
Lear, if we allow ourselves to think of when the road of ambition may come to an end. When Lear
appears sane, he cannot distinguish between Cordelia and her wicked sisters. Obviously, you're
wondering why, and in the hands of a lesser director it would probably just have been a piece of
unnecessary perversity. Note how it is Leir and his daughters, who are mixed with the Paphlagonian
King of Sidney’s Arcadia. Finally, we once again express our gratitude to the late Jean Miller for the

this transgression once Regan has knowledge of the event.Elsewhere, The Duke of Cornwall and
Regan arrive at Gloucester's castle. Let me be your guest and enter your very homes and crack all
the mirrors fixed where windows ought be, and let in the world, full wild and gorgeous. Now,
though, I see goodness and grace everywhere: in Cordelia's plain-spoken honesty and love for Lear,
in Kent and Gloster's loyalty, in Edgar's bizarre attempt to heal his father's soul through stratagem,
and--perhaps most important--in the way Lear himself grows in understanding and compassion even
as he grows in grief and madness. Instead, he later revealed his identity to Gloucester off-stage (post
many conversations and a suicide-attempt by his father), and this ended up being all for naught.
James Hetfield is nearly as massive a personality as old Lear and certainly expresses a wide range of
emotion and occasionally (see St Anger so surprising vulnerability). It did for me what Macbeth
could not- gave me genuinely tragic characters who earned the tears and compassion that I gave for
them by the end of the journey. There is a dimension to his genius that is only comprehensible when
