shakespeares essay

This essay will be about how shakespeare has described the three sisters love between king lear.

Goneril

In this story i think that the way shakespeare has described Goneril is as a very false and manipulative person. An example of Goneril acting in this sort of way is when she said dearer than eyesight,space,liberty. And so this is my evidence  on what i think shakespeare was trying to describe Goneril as.

Regan

In my opinion i think that the way shakespeare presents Regan as is a two faced person. The reason i think so  is because she acts as if she would do anything for  her sister however when king comes she acts as if she would do anything for him. An example would be her saying only she comes too short. This my definition on what I think  shakespeare is trying to describe Regan as.

Cordeila

In this part of the story there is a lady called Cordeila, who is in so much love with the king that she doesn’t even need to explain to him  how much she loves him. Comparing Cordeila to Regan and Goneril is that whenever King lear would ask her ‘what now have you got to say’ she would say ‘nothing’. And so this what I think Shakespeare in my opinion was trying to define Cordeila as.

The story king lear was based and supposed to be about a man named King lear , who owns all of the land and is very rich. However there is only one problem. And that problem is that he hasn’t got a wife. And so there are three sisters that compete against each other trying to get King Lear to fall in their trap. And so as we kmow those three sisters are Cordeila,Regan and Goneril. For there is only one that has true love for King lear .
