King Lear’s Decent into madness

Order Description

King Lear by William Shakespeare

QUESTION: Does King Lear really go “mad,” especially in Act 3? Try to define madness as Shakespeare seems to define it, and evaluate the extent to which you believe King Lear has gone insane. How does his insanity ( justified or not- you’ll have to take a stance on that too) connect and contribute to larger themes in the play.

Please ONLY use the book King Lear and NO other sources.

Verse quotations of more than three lines should be set as a block quotation: start a new lined set each line one inch from the left margin, adding no quotation marks not appearing in the the original. If the quotation starts in the middle of line/verse, reproduce it that way, don’t shift it to the left margin.

If you quote dialogue between more than two characters in the play, set your quotation off from your first text as described above. Being each part of the dialogue with the appropriate characters name indented one inch from the left margin and written in all capital letters. Follow the name with a period, and start the quotation.

If a prose runs four lines or less, put it in quotation marks and incorporate it in the text.

Format prose quotations that run MORE than four lines as block quotes. Start on a new line and set the quotation one inch from the left margin. Do NOT add quotation marks.
