Document Summary
I did not consider this before posting that question and now understand a little better. Another thing i realized after reading responses is that the edmund/edgar competition will run along in parallel with the deadly competition between lear"s daughters. Upon first reading, i did not make that connection and i am glad i have now. I feel like this play relates to my life because i have allowed my pride to get in the way of saying sorry before like king lear did. In the past instead of admitting i was wrong, i would only make it worse. Another way i can relate to this play is because i am born from wedlock just like edmund. I have felt those same feelings of needing to fight for my father"s attention and affection to feel worthy. Kent was one of the kings most loyal servants and i believe he wants to continue to remain loyal despite the king"s hissy fit.
