Description

Excerpt from Shaksperean Fly-Leaves: King Lear, And, the Tempest The introduction of the fool is a wonderful example of the dramatic power of Shakspere, and shows how clearly and completely he was versed in true dramatic construction. In this tragedy, the fool differs from all the other fools and clowns in Shakspere. The poet hath carefully prepared for his introduction. And he makes him a portion of the pathos which is so strongly developed in this play. His babblings. Characterised as they are by wildness, add most forcibly to the contrast and deepen the interest in this great tragedy. Who but Shakspere could have conceived and rendered the power, might and majesty of nature in convulsions, combined with such a knowledge of humanity as that which he has here displayed. Physical nature is in a state of constant contention, and a like result is found in the moral world. In Act III. We see the fullest development of the storminess of human passions, the instability of moral worth, combined with elemental strife, in which hurricanoes spout, and the all-shaking thunder almost smites flat the thick rotundity of the world.
