Any ideas on significant issues Shakespeare is asking the audience to wrestle with in King Lear?
I am suppossed to discuss his success in causing these issues to come into sharp focus.
What does Shakespeare achieve in juxtaposing the Lear and Gloucester families?
Why must Gloucester lose his eyes?
Why must Lear go "mad"?
Why must Cordelia die?
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated thanks.
