Parent/Child Relationships in "Corialanus" and "King Lear"

"The man seems to be his author and I do not know other relatives." "It is a polite child who is sharper than a snake's teeth" (Act 1 Scene 4 lines 285-6) The main character of Shakespeare of the same name These lines by 'Lee King' by the theme of the play have been summarized. Leah was a king close to his reign, and he decided to divide his kingdom into his three daughters. In this play, Shakespeare shows us a patriarchal family. Like Volumnia raises her son Coriolanus alone, Lear seems to raise her daughter alone.

The various parent-child relationships of King Lear are at least satisfactory. The most notable thing is that there is an unusual relationship between Leah and his daughter. He made a foolish mistake, took the king, and divided the kingdom into Reagan, Cordelia, and Gun. To make matters worse, he rejected Cordelia who is truly the only girl who loves him - she refused to play in the Lear game and publicly expressed her love to him. Regan and Gorinel have no such doubt about asserting love for their fathers because they really do not mean what they say but want to acquire the Kingdom of Lear is.

The relationship between the father and the child depicted on King Lear is not made up of love and understanding in usual paternal relationship which we usually describe. On the contrary, it is the relationship between many errors and incompleteness that causes tragic events in the drama. The first act focuses on the relationship between the two fathers, the relationship between Lear King and three daughters, and the relationship between Gloucester and the two sons. Both relationships have serious flaws such as lack of communication and disasters caused by craving for young people and influential fathers' power. But the most important thing is that Lear's relationship with his daughter is best describing the relationship of the "Lear King" type father.

The theme of this play is the relationship between parents and children. Shows how Shakespeare is dealing with this problem. Like a parent-child relationship drawn by Shakespeare, after being deprived of his power he transferred it to his ruler, Wang Leah abused by his own children. As happened in the drama, King Lear divides his land into three children according to how they please him. As the king himself did not anticipate, his most beloved daughter wanted to answer him fairly because he did not want to inherit part of the kingdom unjustly. On the other hand, the other two daughters wanted only their own land, so they drowned the king's ears by lying. The king's two evil girls represent children who abuse their parents because they are useless for them. Therefore, ungrateful children rob you of their fathers from their lives, aspiring to gain more power.
