It was an idea that came up as I was considering how filial relationships function, between the Lear and his daughters, and how Cordelia was banished but doesn't even try to stay and help, like Kent does. Do you know where you heard that about Cordelia's manipulation? I would love to do some research into that vein.

I also like your idea about the fools insanity, it makes me question the fool, and wonder how is it that insanity can aid sanity.

It's just very fascinating. I once heard that the whole first scene can be read as a manipulation by Cordelia, not necessarily to hurt her father, but to get what she wants, which may have been marriage to the person of her choice, or who would have her without a dowry. Looking at the story in a different way there was very smart of you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07291231555559499865noreply@blogger.com
