King Lear

I found the first act of King Lear to be interesting, unexpectedly so. In reading the introduction, I was under the impression that this story would be dull and slow to develop. Imagine my shock when the main event happened within a few moments. I found three major events in the first act: King Lear tests his daughter's love, King Lear banishes Cordelia, and the King of France proclaims his love for Cordelia.

When King Lear banished his pet, his youngest daughter, Cordelia, I was shocked. From the beginning, it was made obvious that King Lear loved Cordelia more than his other daughters, and so it made the love test mroe absurd. And the fact that Cordelia's love was so great, beyond speech, is what condemned her in her father's heart, such a great tragedy!


This story truly does seem the tragedy, because in the quest for loyalty, the King loses his loving daughter and most trusted advisor.

I found the fourth scene both deserving and humorous. Deserving in the fact that King Lear lost approval in banishing his daughter and Kent, his advisor. One thing quite strange in this scene is that Kent disguised himself and re-entered the palace to advise the King. I myself would have been too angry to even look him in the face. The humorous part of the scene is when the fool was teaching the King. The fool seemed wiser and more observant than the King, he had a clearer picture of what was happening in the palace.

In all, I found this act more captivating than expected, and am impatient to continue reading. I enjoyed Shakespeare's use
