Prof. Robertson Fools of Fortune by William Trevor is a wonderful novel that follows an Anglo-Irish family set in post WWI Ireland. The novel explores a great many themes throughout and causes readers to be thoroughly engaged to follow it’s back and forth through time and many premises.

Although this can be seen as quite ironic as I know in Shakespearean times‚ there would always be a fool of some sort‚ who is used to enlighten the mood of the King or of the higher archie by its humour and sarcastic tone. We first see the Fool after Kent is

An Elizabethan fool was an inept orator of the obscene given consent to mock and entertain those residing in the King’s court; a definition of the former being a member of a royal court who entertains with jokes and antics‚ “the Elizabethan fool represents free speech and an un-jaundiced view of a new social fabric” . Relationships between a Fool and his monarch were determined by the boldness of the Fool alongside the King’s tolerance. Fools had a certain amount of comedic licence‚ often uttering
