William Shakespeare's King Lear
← Robert William Service | Morante's Utopian View → |
William Shakespeare’s King Lear centers on a fatal mistake in the judgment of character the ruler made and the subsequent loss of many lives not only evil ones but good ones too. Shakespeare wants the readers and the spectators to learn a lesson from the play that evil begets evil. Those characters that were mean and wicked died, whereas those who attempted to withstand lies and plots survived and were left to rule the kingdom. In King Lear, Goneril, Regan, and Edmund die, whereas Kent, Albany, and Edgar survive because their life choices were good.
The play reveals that evil corrupts people into making wrong deeds that will lead to very sad and tragic outcomes. King Lear is not inherently mean but for some reason he mistook her youngest daughter’s sincerity for a lack of love and reacted to it very vehemently by taking away her part of inheritance. As a result of his unwise actions, the wholeness of power in his other daughters’ hands allowed them to treat their father badly. Initially, it was King Lear’s fault that he did not share the kingdom wisely between all three daughters. Therefore, King Lear lost his mental health and eventually he even lost his life because he could not accept the consequences of his follies.
Similarly, in the example of the Gloucester family, Shakespeare shows that corrupting actions further corrupt people and eventually destroy their lives. Edmund plotted against Edgar and faked a letter. Gloucester believed him and wanted to give Edgar’s inheritance to him. However, Edmund’s shenanigans did not bring benefit for him and eventually he received a deadly wound.
In this regard, King Lear’s and Gloucester’s families are similar in their tragedies. Both parents misjudged their children and their wrong choices led them to physical and mental illnesses. The same way as King Lear believed that his elder daughter would take care of him, Cornwall believed Edmund would be a better son that Edgar that had been defamed.
Shakespeare prompted the audience to make the decision that evil begets evil. Seeing how badly the parents of both families ended, the readers and viewers can vividly see how flattery and plots can lead unwise people astray. Meanwhile, those people who plot also do not end up happy and rich.

So often, when one deals with customer service, he or she is treated rudely. That was not the case with EssaysEmpire.com. The agents were helpful and friendly, knowledable and concerned. I, for one, was astounded with their competence. When it came down to the actual written material that I ordered, it was much better than I had anticipated. There are clearly some expert writers who work for EssaysEmpire.com. I would rate this writing service as exceptional, 5 stars out of 5 stars. I will happily return when I need help with another written work. |

I was quite satisfied with the results of my paper order. EssaysEmpire.com sure has some good writers! I thought it might just be some college kids who were writing in their spare time to earn some extra bucks. No! EssaysEmpire.com hires legitimate writers. They all seem to be well educated and intelligent, too. My paper was terrific! |

Thanks goes out to the writer who filled my order. He did everything right the first time around. I had to ask for one tiny revision, but that was my own fault for leaving it out of the directions. |

I am 100% satisfied with the writer that you assigned to my project. This person understood exactly what I needed, even though I’m not the best communicator and the instructions were tedious and difficult. I felt certain I would have to send my paper back for a number of revisions, but I didn’t. The writer was able to convey exactly what I wished to express and he did it in record time!Thanks for everything. EssaysEmpire.com is the greatest! |

Thank you so much! I was assigned a paper that I found impossible to write. I did the reading. I did the research. However, regardless of my weak attempts, I could not formulate a cogent paper. I needed help, and EssaysEmpire.com’s writers were there for me. Customer service even arranged for me to speak with the person who was working on my paper personally. I had a lot of concerns, because my professor was very picky. However, EssaysEmpire.com was able to handle the order with no problem |

I had a hard time articulating what my professor wanted, so I was able to speak straight to my writer. After I had explained a little bit, I could tell he understood everything. He then took the ball and ran with it, so to speak. He wrote my paper in two days and it was the picture of perfection! I am very grateful that he knew what to do and how to do it so perfectly. |

I had to turn on my laptop for the express purpose of writing to you. I had to let you know what lifesavers you people are! I had never even considered hiring a professional writer to help me and was almost resigned to dropping out of school altogether. Then, I thought about it, and asked myself what it would hurt to try EssaysEmpire.com for just one paper. That paper was written astonishingly well! From that one paper, I learned many of the things that I did not know about writing. It was perfect, so I learned all about formatting in the APA style. I learned a lot, so I want to thank you for that. |
