Book Description
King Lear is considered by many to be the finest tragedy in the English language, being our most complete and catastrophic tragedy. This volume gathers together some of the best and most diverse criticism of the play. Included in the essays are discussions of the play's greatness, a New Historicist reading, and a deconstruction of the dialectics of creation and uncreation.
