What is the fatal flaw of King Lear?
King Lear is stubborn and wants to get his way all the time. The reason why he gets so angry at Cordelia is because he really wants her to say “I’ll do anything you say” Then he’d tell her to choose a husband. When he doesn’t get his way he throws a fit and basically burns the only bridge he has. Then he’s so stubborn that he won’t listen to the voice of reason (His jester) until way too late.
