In the King Lear play, Shakespeare creates many conditions in which
|
|
humans live in the world. The main characters in the play are used to
|
|
portray Shakespeare's ideas. One of these ideas which Shakespeare is
|
|
trying to portray is evil between the characters and in the world which are
|
|
emphasized throughout the play. The evil, created by humans, is outweighed
|
|
by good in the world of King Lear. Evil was created by humans who
|
|
decided to do wrong to others. Duke of Albany, said that all evil people
|
|
will be justly punished (ACT V, iii, 303). Albany indicated that it is the
|
|
people who caused evil and people decided to do evil, not gods. Lear
|
|
believes that since Edgar is out on the heath he must have given everything
|
|
to his daughters as well (ACT III, iv, 62ff). Since he believes that Edgar
|
|
gave everything to evil Lear must believe that people are the cause of
|
|
evil. It were Lear's daughters who decided to do wrong to Lear and it was
|
|
Lear's fault in giving away all of his land. Si ughters are the humans in
|
|
the play, it is the humans who caused the evil and Lear believes that
|
|
humans were the ones who created evil. Edgar, is another character in the
|
|
play who believes that evil is caused by humans and not the gods. Edgar
|
|
said, "The gods are just, and of our peasant vices make instruments to
|
|
plague us" (ACT V, iii, 169). Edgar clearly says that the gods are right
|
|
and it is the people who are responsible for promoting evil in the world.
|
|
It is us who make the instruments necessary for evil to spread and plague
|
|
the world. In the world of King Lear many characters believe evil was
|
|
caused by the people and not by the gods.
|
|
|
|
Even though evil was created by humans good will always exist. After
|
|
King Lear was captured he showed that even if evil exists, good will always
|
|
be present. Lear speaks about love with Cordelia in the prison cell and
|
|
how they will still have each other despite of the evil around them (ACT V,
|
|
iii, 8). On another occasion Lear also says that despite all the evil in
|
|
the world the raw nature, which is good, is still unharmed (ACT IV, iv,
|
|
90-92). Lear discovers nature's beauty by playing with the mice and
|
|
listening to the signing birds. While all the evil is at its peak and
|
|
everything seems to be lost, the raw nature in the play is unharmed. The
|
|
good exists even while the evil dominates the world.
|
|
|
|
Good will not only exist if evil dominates, good will also outweigh
|
|
evil eventually. The war which was lost by Cordelia and Lear, the good
|
|
side, showed evil win (ACT V, ii). However, good over powered it after the
|
|
war by Duke of Albany. The good in the play first was diminished to almost
|
|
nothing but in the end more good was able to defeat evil in the play. When
|
|
the two sisters began fighting between each other evil began fighting
|
|
against evil (ACT V, i and iii). Eventually, because of that fighting
|
|
between evil, good was able to over power evil. When the evil seemed
|
|
strong and good almost non-existent, evil managed to fight itself and give
|
|
good a chance to get stronger. At the end of the play evil was completely
|
|
defeated and good once again dominated the world in the play.
|
|
|
|
Although evil will always be present and people will be the reason why
|
|
it exists, good will always outweigh evil. Through the characters,
|
|
Shakespeare is able to portray how evil and man compose in the world. The
|
|
evil will always exist but good will always win and dominate in the world
|
|
of King Lear.
