Critics seem united in proclaiming its greatness, and its powerful, often painful insights into the human condition, but they seem at pains to say why. Samuel Beckett claimed that the play was perfect, and he could therefore say nothing about it.

King Lear is one of the most complex plays written by William Shakespeare, with its many characters, disguises, and surprising outcomes. Typical of most Shakespearean tragedies, old King Lear is brought to ruin, and eventually death, by a tragic flaw: his foolishness spurred on by his pride. Shakespeare examines many universal themes and ideals such as the dangers of foolishness and manipulation, the consequences of greed, and the bittersweet happiness of redemption and reconciliation

King Lear is one of William Shakespeare's most famous tragedies. It was believed to have been written between 1605-1606, and was based on a legend of the Leir of Britain, a pre-Roman Celtic king from mythology. Shakespeare's King Lear brilliantly depicts the senility and increasing madness of its title character as he splits his kingdom into portions for his daughters' based on their false declarations of love for him. King Lear, wanting to retire from the duties the monarchy demands of him, makes the decision to divide his kingdom amongst his three daughters.

Introduction King Lear was first printed in 1608. This initial printing is now referred to as the First Quarto. The story of King Lear and his daughters was a familiar tale in Elizabethan England, where it was generally believed to be based on historical fact, having been taken from ancient British history. In an act that generated extensive publicity, two daughters attempted to have their father declared insane so that they might seize his estate. The younger daughter, Cordell, objected. This similarity of name and plot might have sparked some interest in resurrecting a familiar plot.
