"LEAR: Does Lear walk thus? Speak thus? / Who is it that can tell me who I am?" "Centuries of critics and actors have tried to tell, but Lear's identity, and the meaning of his action in the play, are still touched with enigma."

Does the very magnitude of the criminals and their crimes stir deep layers in us of recognition and empathy? Do they kill, as well as suffer, for us? Are we mistaken in sympathizing? Are we rocked between sympathy and revulsion, as we see-saw among so many opposites that tense the play? To explore the multiplying mysteries of the play, this book examines major interpretations of distinguished actors, directors, scholars, and critics from...
Shakespiritualism
