Intro, class 4: Testing in Lear; parallax; doubling; the Fool
from amimetobios · host Amimetobios
More on fairy tale testing in Scene 1. Fairy tales as the world outside our world, which is the world of mortality Lear gets us into. If you've heard the Shakespeare podcasts on Lear, the fairy tale testing approach is new, i.e. a more recent insight. After that, the rest of the class is a quick version of the longer exposition in the Shakespeare classes: parallels and stereoscopic near parallels (i.e. parallax) between and among characters: "nothing will come of nothing," repeated with the Fool beginning the recuperation of Lear after his terrible first appearance; the rivalry between Kent and the Fool; Lear as the Fool's only friend.
