Book excerpt: King Lear of Britain, elderly and wanting to retire from the duties of the monarchy, decides to divide his realm among his three daughters, and declares he will offer the largest share to the one who loves him most. The eldest, Goneril , speaks first, declaring her love for her father in fulsome terms. Moved by her flattery Lear proceeds to grant to Goneril her share as soon as she has finished her declaration, before Regan and Cordelia have a chance to speak. He then awards to Regan her share as soon as she has spoken. When it is finally the turn of his youngest and favorite daughter, Cordelia, at first she refuses to say anything ("Nothing, my Lord") and then declares there is nothing to compare her love to, nor words to properly express it; she speaks honestly but bluntly, which infuriates him. In his anger he disinherits Cordelia and divides her share between Regan and Goneril.Dans la grande salle du palais des rois de Grande-Bretagne, le vieux roi Lear r�unit ses filles, leurs maris et son fid�le ami le comte de Kent. Il annonce son d�sir de se retirer du pouvoir et sa d�cision de diviser son royaume entre ses trois filles, Goneril mari�e au duc d'Albany, R�gane �pouse de Cornouailles et Cord�lia, la plus jeune, courtis�e par le duc de Bourgogne et le roi de France. Bless� par cette r�serve qui pique d'autant plus son orgueil qu'elle �mane de son enfant pr�f�r�e, Lear d�sh�rite Cord�lia, partage le royaume entre les deux autres soeurs, la chasse impitoyablement et annonce qu'il ira vivre alternativement sur les terres de Goneril et de R�gane avec sa suite d'une centaine de chevaliers. Le comte de Kent, proche du roi, s'oppose � ce traitement injuste et tente de faire entendre raison au souverain qui, exc�d�, le bannit �galement. Apprenant l'infortune de Cord�lia, le duc de Bourgogne renonce � ses vues mais le roi de France, sa passion raffermie par tant de vertus qu'il juge plus pr�cieuses qu'une dot, annonce que Cord�lia r�gnera sur la belle France o� elle trouvera mieux que ce qu'elle a perdu.

Zu Beginn of the St�ckes verbannt Lear seine Tochter Cordelia und seinen Gefolgsmann Kent . Эдмунд , der aheliche Sohn von Gloucester , интригует gegen seinen Bruder Edgar , sodass dieser fliehen muss. Gleichzeitig wiegelt der einzig auf seinen eigenen Vorteil bedachte Edmund mit kalter Berechnung seine Familie auf, um sich das gesamte Erbe seines Vaters anzueignen. Der Katalysator der beiden Haupterz�hlungen ist die Nebenhandlung von der Invasion Britanniens durch die Franzosen. Mit der Landung des franz�sischen Heeres in Dover erh�lt das Drama einen Impuls, der die Ereignisse auf extreme Weise vorantreibt und beschleunigt.

It depicts the gradual descent into madness of the title character, after he disposes of his kingdom giving bequests to two of his three daughters based on their flattery of him, bringing tragic consequences for all. Derived from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological pre-Roman Celtic king, the play has been widely adapted for the stage and motion pictures, with the title role coveted by many of the world's most accomplished actors. Originally drafted in 1605 or 1606, with its first known performance on St. Stephen's Day in 1606, the first attribution to Shakespeare was a 1608 publication in a quarto of uncertain provenance; it may be an early draft or simply reflect the first performance text. The Tragedy of King Lear, a more theatrical revision, was included in the 1623 First Folio. Modern editors usually conflate the two, though some insist that each version has its own individual integrity that should be preserved.

Book excerpt: King Lear is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. It tells the tale of a king who bequeaths his power and land to two of his three daughters, after they declare their love for him in a fawning and obsequious manner. His third daughter gets nothing, because she will not flatter him as her sisters had done. When he feels he has been treated with disrespect by the two daughters who now have his wealth and power, he becomes furious to the point of madness. He eventually becomes tenderly reconciled to his third daughter, just before tragedy strikes her and then the king.Derived from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological pre-Roman Celtic king, the play has been widely adapted for the stage and motion pictures, with the title role coveted by accomplished actors.The first attribution to Shakespeare of this play, originally drafted in 1605 or 1606 at the latest with its first known performance on St. Stephen's Day in 1606, was a 1608 publication in a quarto of uncertain provenance, in which the play is listed as a history; it may be an early draft or simply reflect the first performance text. The Tragedy of King Lear, a revised version that is better tailored for performance, was included in the 1623 First Folio. Modern editors usually conflate the two, though some insist that each version has its own individual integrity that should be preserved.After the English Restoration, the play was often revised with a happy ending for audiences who disliked its dark and depressing tone, but since the 19th century Shakespeare's original version has been regarded as one of his supreme achievements. The tragedy is noted for its probing observations on the nature of human suffering and kinship. George Bernard Shaw wrote "No man will ever write a better tragedy than Lear."

Download or read book The Tragedy of Hamlet Prince of Denmark English French Edition Illustrated written by John Everett Millais and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hamlet may be the greatest tragedy ever written. It is certainly the best-known tragedy today. Lines from this play continue to be used in everyday speech, from Hamlet's own soliloquy about death («To be or not to be..."), to affirmations of life («To thine own self be true"), to the skeptical ("There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy"). The plot itself has been copied and reused hundreds of times since Shakespeare first wrote the play at the turn of the 17th century. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the most important piece of English language literature ever written.For Shakespearean tragedy, the language and plot are fairly easy to follow. Hamlet has a suspicion that his uncle has killed his father and married his mother in order to become king. Hamlet feels the need to avenge his father, but he has no proof of the intrigue, relying on hearsay and the words of a ghost that may or may not have been real. Hamlet wavers on his decision to kill his uncle the king, and through his indecision causes his own, as well as many other tragic deaths.Although many scholars today find other Shakespeare works to be superior, in particular King Lear or The Tempest, Hamlet remains the Shakespeare to read and to know. There is no other way to get at the heart of English-language culture than through careful reading of the Bard's most famous work.

Download or read book King Lear written by Jeffrey Kahan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-04-18 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is King Lear an autonomous text, or a rewrite of the earlier and anonymous play King Leir? Should we refer to Shakespeare’s original quarto when discussing the play, the revised folio text, or the popular composite version, stitched together by Alexander Pope in 1725? What of its stage variations? When turning from page to stage, the critical view on King Lear is skewed by the fact that for almost half of the four hundred years the play has been performed, audiences preferred Naham Tate's optimistic adaptation, in which Lear and Cordelia live happily ever after. When discussing King Lear, the question of what comprises ‘the play’ is both complex and fragmentary. These issues of identity and authenticity across time and across mediums are outlined, debated, and considered critically by the contributors to this volume. Using a variety of approaches, from postcolonialism and New Historicism to psychoanalysis and gender studies, the leading international contributors to King Lear: New Critical Essays offer major new interpretations on the conception and writing, editing, and cultural productions of King Lear. This book is an up-to-date and comprehensive anthology of textual scholarship, performance research, and critical writing on one of Shakespeare's most important and perplexing tragedies. Contributors Include: R.A. Foakes, Richard Knowles, Tom Clayton, Cynthia Clegg, Edward L. Rocklin, Christy Desmet, Paul Cantor, Robert V. Young, Stanley Stewart and Jean R. Brink
Download or read book King Lear Illustrated Edition written by William Shakespeare and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-14 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare's King Lear challenges us with the magnitude, intensity, and sheer duration of the pain that it represents. Its figures harden their hearts, engage in violence, or try to alleviate the suffering of others. Lear himself rages until his sanity cracks. What, then, keeps bringing us back to King Lear? For all the force of its language, King Lear is almost equally powerful when translated, suggesting that it is the story, in large part, that draws us to the play. The play tells us about families struggling between greed and cruelty, on the one hand, and support and consolation, on the other. Emotions are extreme, magnified to gigantic proportions. We also see old age portrayed in all its vulnerability, pride, and, perhaps, wisdom--one reason this most devastating of Shakespeare's tragedies is also perhaps his most moving.
