About
A Shakespearean Tragedy
The story follows the aging King Lear of Britain, who decides to divide his kingdom among his three daughters based on their declarations of love for him. However, his youngest and most beloved daughter, Cordelia, refuses to flatter him as her sisters do, leading Lear to disown her. As Lear’s decision unfolds, he faces betrayal, cruelty, and the loss of his sanity.
First written sometime between 1603 and 1606, this edition is derived from the book published in 1864 with 20 black & white illustrations by H. C. Selous. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
