King Lear In Plain and Simple English: A Modern Translation and the Original Version (Classic Retold: Bookcaps Study Guides) - Softcover
Synopsis
Madness, betrayal, broken families—King Lear has all the weight of a modern drama, but the language can make it hard to follow.
Shakespeare’s King Lear is a powerful story about pride, loyalty, and the devastating consequences of poor judgment. A king’s decision to divide his kingdom sets off a chain of deception, cruelty, and heartbreak. The emotions are timeless—but the 17th-century English? Not always easy to grasp.
That’s where this edition helps. It presents the full original text side by side with a modern English translation, allowing readers to move through the play line by line with confidence. It’s not a summary or adaptation—every word of Shakespeare is still there, just paired with a version that helps you understand what’s going on.
Perfect for students, teachers, performers, or anyone who wants to experience the full force of Shakespeare’s tragedy without struggling through the language.
