The Fool in King Lear – Lear’s Conscience

  • Truth-Teller:

    • After Lear banishes Cordelia and gives his kingdom to Goneril and Regan, the Fool constantly reminds Lear of his foolishness.

    • He is the only character who can speak blunt truths to the king without punishment, fulfilling the traditional role of a court jester.

  • Uses Riddles and Jokes:

    • His wisdom comes through riddles, songs, and jokes, exposing the absurdity of Lear’s actions.

    • Example: "Thou hadst little wit in thy bald crown when thou gav’st thy golden one away."

    • Acts as the voice of reason that Lear ignored.

  • Lear’s Other Half:

    • The Fool is an extension of Lear’s mind, representing the part that recognizes his error.

    • Stays with Lear through his descent into madness, commenting on his guilt and regret.
