Sinópsis
'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. 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 deeply moving, passionately expressed, and intellectually ambitious play.
