King Lear (PART 2)

Ready to see how King Lear's story finishes, 3rd-year students?

Before you start reading PART 2, please post a comment answering this question:

Whose stories do you think will have a happy ending? Whose will have a sad ending?

Then read pp. 58 to 71 in your book. Were you right?

After you finish, post a comment discussing the following statement:

"King Lear and Gloucester were old but not wise."

So ... how did you like this play by Shakespeare? More by this great playwright in our second term meetings!

  1. The story of King Lear will have a happy ending and the story that will have a sad ending is the Cordelia's story
    After to read pp 58 to 71, i was right.

  2. This sentence is correct, since some people his age have gone through many things, both good and bad, but every thing for which they have left school, and every time they (people of their age) back to go through a situation not helped them, always think twice before doing so, this is exactly what King Lear and Gloucester should know.

  3. I think that the relation between Edmond and Edgard will have an unhappy ending. The relation between King France and Cordelia will have a happy ending. The relation between Regan and Duke of Cornwall will have a bad ending and the relation between Goneril and Duke of Albany will have a happy ending.

  4. I belive that only the relation between Edmon and Edgard will have a sad ending but the other relations (King France and Cordelia - Goneril and Duke of Albany - Regan and Duke of Cornwall) will have a happy end.


    I think that the sentence is correct, if they were wise, they didn't do that they did

  7. Reading that sentence, I think it is correct to say that the relationship between Edgar and Edmond did not end well and that happened between them.
    Speaking of the relationship of France and Cordelia King - Duke of Alban and Goneril and Regan and Duke of Cornwall
    will have a happy end because there were good times

  8. In my opinion, Edgar and Edmond didn't end well because they don't match. And between France and Cordelia King will have a happy ending.

  9. In my opinion the relation between Edgard and Edmond has a sad ending and the others relations ( France and Cordelia King - Duke of Alban and Goneril and Regan and Duke of Cornwall
    ) will have a happy ending.

  10. In my opinion the relation between Edgard and Edmond will not have a happy ending because Edmond wanted to recive all his father´s possessions and he will do everything necessary to get them.
    I think that regan, the Duke of Cornwall, Goneril and the Duke of Albany will have a sad ending, but Cordelia and King Lear no.

  11. I agree with my partners because I think that the relation between Edgar and Edmond will have a sad ending and the others relations will have a happy ending.

  12. I think that the story is obvious, because is predictable that Edgard and Edmond will have a bad ending. The others, France and Cordelia King - Duke of Alban and Goneril and Regan and Duke of Cornwall, will have a happy ending.

  13. I think that is a tragic history. I think that Goneril and Regan didn't love really Liarr, they wanted his power and lands. By the other sidee, Cordeliaa, who was hated to her father, was the only who stayed with Lear at the end.

  15. I think like a lot of my partners, Edmund and Edgard's story will have an unhappy ending. And I thought that the doughters would be fine with their father, but I was wrong. And King Lear and Gloucester were old but not wise it's true... But they made a lot of mistakes.

  16. I agree withs my partners too. The story with Edmund and Edgard never could have a happy ending because they had bad things.
    The others storys had a happy ending because they didn't want anything from the king.

  17. I think Edmund and Edgard's story will have an unhappy ending because Edmund was a bit ambitious(I think that because he wants to recive all his father´s possessions).
    However, I think the other relationships (King France and Cordelia, Regan and Duke of Cornwall, Goneril and Duke of Albany) will have a happy end.=)

  21. I believe that the story of Gloucester and his sons will have a happy ending. However, many bad things might happen before it ends. But finally I think Lear and daughter's story wont end well.
