King Lear
Overview: King Lear, old and tired, divides his kingdom among his daughters, giving great importance to their protestations of love for him. When Cordelia, youngest and most honest, refuses to idly flatter the old man in return for favor, he banishes her and turns for support to his remaining daughters. But Goneril and Regan have no love for him and instead plot to take all his power from him. In a parallel, Lear's loyal courtier Gloucester favors his illegitimate son Edmund after being told lies about his faithful son Edgar. Madness and tragedy befall both ill-starred fathers.
Overview: The castle is undoubtedly the emblematic monument of the thousand years of history that constitute the Middle Ages. But how were castles actually built between the 10th and 15th century? What techniques were used before the introduction of modern construction practices?
