Résumé
De bejaarde koning Lear besluit zijn rijk onder zijn drie dochters te verdelen. Wie hem het meeste liefheeft krijgt het grootste stuk. Gonegril en Regan doen hun uiterste best om hun vader van hun liefde te overtuigen, maar Cordelia, Lears jongste dochter en zijn oogappel, weigert het spelletje mee te spelen. Lear verstoot haar en voegt haar deel bij dat van de andere twee. Deze beslissing blijkt fataal voor alle betrokken partijen.

William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He began his successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part-owner of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men. His early plays were comedies and histories, considered some of the best in these genres. In 1623, a more definitive collection of his works known as the First Folio was published. Shakespeare was born to a successful glover and educated at the King's New School in Stratford. He married Anne Hathaway and had three children. Shakespeare's plays were performed by the Lord Chamberlain's Men, making him a wealthy man. He continued to act in his own plays and collaborated with other playwrights. Shakespeare's last three plays were collaborations, and he retired to Stratford before his death. His work has had a lasting impact on theatre and literature, and he is considered a genius and a classic of the German Weimar era. There have been doubts about the authorship of his works, but they are considered fringe theories.
