"The Thing Itself" Ironic Hermeneutics of the Subject in King Lear
Abstract
The paper discusses the process of self-knowing experienced by the main character in King Lear, through the self-deposed King's dialogues with various protagonists of the play - his closest relatives, his servants, fellow-sufferers on the heath and even the forces of nature. His deepest knowledge comes from the encounter with Edgar in the disguise of Poor Tom, when his reason finally gives way before he can realize what he has done to himself.
