by far the most critical component of society in the King Lear universe. Mercy is only valid on individual basis‚ when the assailant actually learns from their mistakes. If we think that by forgiving constantly that the perpetrator will stop committing crimes‚ then we are sadly mistaken. Criminals in Shakespeare’s King Lear must be punished justifiably‚ for their evil behavior. Only justice and great power can attempt to restore the order of King Lear’s kingdom ruined by the dictatorship of Goneril
