Comparison of Twelfth Night and King Lear
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper
comparing and contrasting these two Shakespeare plays. In terms of contrast, there are
few of Shakespeare's plays that have more points of difference between them than 'King
Lear' and 'Twelfth Night.' 'King Lear' is the darkest tragedy Shakespeare wrote;
'Twelfth Night' is a rousing, bawdy comedy that has lost nothing in the 350 years that
have passed since it was written. In spite of their obvious differences, there are similarities
as well, the greatest of which is that all is not as it seems. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
