Loyal To His King Service And Loyalty Kent
268 words
Service and loyalty are big parts of the plot of
King Lear. Some characters of this play show
complete loyalty and service to the king. One of
these is Kent. Throughout the play, Kent is
completely loyal to his king, even after the Lear
banishes him from the kingdom. This tells me that
some people can be loyal to the end. I believe
that Kent sees that the daughters are not loyal to
their father. He sees right through their false
identities and realizes that Cordelia is the only
one that is truly...

Men Are Selfish Nearer To You They Turn Machiavelli

Machiavelli s views on human nature are unjust;
nevertheless, his philosophy, or rather
instructions, is reasonable in capturing the
selfishness of men. As written in The Qualities of
the Prince by Machiavelli, Men are ungrateful,
fickle, simulators and deceivers, avoider's of
danger, greedy for gain; and while you work for
their good they are completely yours, offering you
their blood, their property, their lives, and
their sons when danger is far away; but when it
