Abstract

O ruined piece of nature! This great world shall so wear out to naught," exclaims Gloucester upon recognizing King Lear's madness, after the king's own daughters have withdrawn from him all kingly privileges. In Shakespeare's famous drama, the fate of the planet and that of his characters are inextricably linked. With the king's expulsion by his children, a thunder storm arrives. And when characters speak of ruined nature, as Gloucester does, they imply that the social as well as biological-physical order are out of joint.
