The Development Of Gloucester, Albany and Lear People going through changes throughout their life is a universally known concept. ... Many lessons have been taught on the tragedy King Lear, by William Shakespeare, because of Shakespeare’s superb development of his characters. He traces the psychological evolution of the Earl of Gloucester, the Duke of Albany and King Lear; from being irrational to sensible, subservient to self-determined and oblivious to observant respectfully. ... As the husband of Goneril, one of Lear’s daughters, his wife’s strong ambitious nature overwhelms him so much that he follows his wife full heatedly. ... Probably the character that evolves the most dramatically is King Lear, the king of Britain, for he develops from being oblivious to becoming observant. Because he allows his ego and external things to determine his decisions Lear is characterized as oblivious for it shows how he allows those factors to prohibit him from making decisions based on the facts. In a beginning scene Lear holds a contest between his three daughters to determine which one of them would be his successor. The way Lear would determine who would take over was to see which one of the girls most strongly expressed their love for him a true sign of an egotistical person.
