Sinossi
In una Britannia senza tempo, a picco su abissali scogliere sferzate dal vento, il vecchio re Lear è in procinto di abdicare: intorno a lui, alle sue spalle, si consuma lo scontro tra i pretendenti al trono. Ottenuto il potere a forza di pubbliche quanto fasulle proteste d’amore, due delle figlie lo tradiscono; la terza, Cordelia, gli resta fedele, ma troppo tardi decide di schierarsi in difesa del vecchio padre. Scacciato, ridotto alla follia, Lear vaga nella brughiera in tempesta, assillato dalla consapevolezza che lo sforzo di assicurare la sopravvivenza della propria stirpe attraverso l’abdicazione ha in realtà causato una guerra fratricida che finirà per spazzarla via per sempre. Dramma dell’amore filiale e del tradimento, Re Lear mette in scena un mondo in cui i valori più semplici e universali vengono sovvertiti e calpestati, un mondo che, per lasciar spazio a una nuova era, deve soccombere al caos che ha generato.

I've read Lear many times, and, although I didn't learn much about the play this reading, I did learn a little about myself. I have always loved the play, but in the past I found its injustice and evil nigh overpowering, its victims pathetically guiltless, its perspective verging on the nihilistic.

King Lear can be read in various ways - as a theological drama, as a philosophical one, as a supreme example of Shakespeare's intuitive egalitarianism or even as a melodrama lifted towards tragedy only by its superb poetry. It is the most titanic of Shakespeare's tragedy.
“Thou shouldst not have been old till thou hadst been wise.” There is a hope, of course, for many of us to become wiser as we become older. In most cases, this does work, but sometimes we exchange naivete for senility, with too few years of graceful wisdom in between. King Lear with his daughter Leggi tutto

I was lucky enough to be living in Stockholm when Ingmar Bergman staged Lear at the Swedish National Theatre in the late 80s, and I saw it twice. Bergman's take on the play was very interesting and unusual; he interpreted it as fundamentally optimistic. Obviously, you're wondering why, and in the han Leggi tutto
