      <title>Christian interpretations of the play by Clare D</title>

      <description>
‘Until this century, the predominant way of understanding King Lear was Christian – that is, to see the play as enacting the redemption of Lear through his suffering; to see the basic structure of the play as a pilgrimage to a state of grace …’ Stephen Hazell

         <description><![CDATA[<p>3 Pilgrims of the play are Gloucester, Lear and Edgar. </p><p>A <b>pilgrimage</b> is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel"><u>journey</u></a> or search of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral"><u>moral</u></a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirituality"><u>spiritual</u></a> significance. Typically, it is a journey to a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrine"><u>shrine</u></a> or other location of importance to a person's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belief"><u>beliefs</u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faith"><u>faith</u></a>, although sometimes it can be a metaphorical journey into someone's own beliefs. Many religions attach spiritual importance to particular places: the place of birth or death of founders or saints, or to the place of their "calling" or spiritual awakening, or of their connection (visual or verbal) with the divine, to locations where miracles were performed or witnessed, or locations where a deity is said to live or be "housed," or any site that is seen to have special spiritual powers. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Gloucesters journey: key motif is blindness, when blinded he can see better and comes to self realisation and humbleness.'Them Edgar was abus'dKind Gods,forgive me that, and prosper him.' In this sense we can see Gloucester as asking for forgiveness for his sins. In christianity his slate will be made clean with God and he will now be eligible for salvation through redemption. At the start of the play Glocester as well as Lear could be seen as having original sin, a doctrine in christianity that suggests we were all born with sin but through self-realisation and asking forgiveness,thus living a good christian life, our sins will be forgiven and we can be considered a place in heaven.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Lears journey: from madness to sanity, and self humbleness "They told me I was everything. 'Tis a lie, I am not ague-proof." act 4 scene 6</p><p>'I am a man more sinned against than sinning'&lt;-- Lear believes his punishment is unjust but according to christianity, God doesnt make mistakes and just like Jesus we all have to live a life of suffering to be true christians. Thus Cordelia's passing could be seen as Lears ultimate punishment as through her dying he sees the consequences of his actions. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Act 4, scene 6, Gloucester and Lear realize they are blind of the truth which has cost them greatly, and therefore experience a rebirth; Gloucester no longer has a death wish, but strives for self-discovery and Lear realizes that he is equal to all other human beings and flattery and praise are unimportant.</p>&nbsp;"they told me i was everything. tis a lie" - Lear.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The death of Cordelia could also be seen in christian terms as her dying would be classed as the best thing for her as she would be rewarded for her good character on earth through eternal life in heaven. Cordelia represents a mary-like woman as opposed to her eve-like sisters, Goneril and Regan. The sister's would be expected to assume their place in hell whilst Cordelia gains her rightful place in heaven.</p>]]></description>
