    In this tragedy, King Lear sets out to divide his kingdom between his three daughters, according to their degree of love for him. Goneril and Regan profess great love for their father, but Lear's youngest and favorite daughter, Cordelia, says nothing. Enraged, Lear banishes Cordelia and gives away her portion of the kingdom to her sisters. With nothing left to gain, Goneril and Regan no longer want to care for the king and turn him out into the cold. Meanwhile, Edmund, the illegitimate some of the Earl of Gloucester, contrives an estrangement between his father and his half-brother, Edgar, and declares his love and allegiance to both Goneril and Regan. Cordelia raises an army in France to fight her sisters' powers. True to Shakespearean form, the complicated plot becomes a taste of greed, selfishness and spite.
