KING LEAR!!! One of the famous play that has been written by popular writer which is William Shakespears. King Lear convey to the audiences about love and sacrifice. Once again Shakespears talk about love and sacrifice in his play. It just like he cannot resist the two themes in all her plays. However this play has lots of moral that teach audiences about real life situation.
King Lear present love in materialistic ways where Lear wanted his entire daughter to compare their love to him with thing that is valuable. However one of them refuses to connect real love to thing because love is something that comes from heart. Because of that reason, Lear has disowned his daughter that he thinks has betrayed himself.
A concept of love is very general and depends on individual. As for Cordelia, she thinks love as something that cannot be comparing to other things in the world. However for Lear, love is something that he can see and based on things that are valuable such as land, gold and so on. In addition, both his daughter, Regan and Goneril, present love because of something that can give them benefits. They present their love towards their father, Lear, because they want his richness. In the end they all reject what Lear said and ignore him. In addition, they said that Lear is an old man and should not do anything more.
Of course, Cordelia will be the most attractive character because she shows good traits by loving her father as honest as she can be. This play has made me realize that as a human being we should love each other and the love we present should come from deep in our heart. If we do that, I guarantee that we can feel the real feeling of love that cannot be resist by man in this world. Furthermore, love is something that can make us appreciate others (human beings, animals, plants or things) and that will make our life more reasonable.
As a conclusion, King Lear has conveyed a true concept of love that should have in every man on the earth.
