True Love in King Lear
The researcher will try to expose that feelings are not shown with words but with actions. No one can deny that true love between a father and a daughter is something really wonderful. In King Lear, the King 's youngest daughter, Cordelia, gives us the real meaning of love from daughter to a father. The reader will understand that by comparing the words she said when her father asked her to profess her love to him and she answered simply "I love you because you are my father" with her sisters` long speeches of love. Also the reader will realize the true love is not said but it is felt, where it was appeared when King Lear divided his kingdom between two daughters and ignored Cordelia because she was not able to express her love.
Purpose: The researcher 's goals are to explain the true love and passion, also to show that the true love does not vanish from the heart even if a person is treated badly by the person he loves. Through the research the researcher will try to correct and confirm the real meaning of true love which is expressed by deeds not with words and to show how the expressions of feelings in actions rather than words can increase the love and peace we give each other. The reader will discover that one who loves you is the one who speaks more is not necessary true .And to correct the idea it is not what we say; it is what we do that shows us who we really are. And the research will raise awareness that would help people to comprehend that feeling not only by words because true love can never be described merely by words alone. Significance: In King Lear, Shakespeare addresses the issue of true love. Nowadays most of people do not know the means of true love and we desperately need this love to do a lot of things together to make this world a better place for us and also to learn how to express our feelings in an effective way without hurting each other 's feeling.
