{"product_id":"lear-9780413519504","title":"Lear","description":"\u003cp\u003eEdward Bond's version of Lear's story embraces myth and reality, war and politics, to reveal the violence endemic in all unjust societies. He exposes corrupted innocence as the core of social morality, and this false morality as a source of the aggressive tension which must ultimately destroy that society. In a play in which blindness becomes a dramatic metaphor for insight, Bond warns that 'it is so easy to subordinate justice to power, but when this happens power takes on the dynamics and dialectics of aggression, and then nothing is really changed'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edward Bond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Methuen Drama\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Student Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.76h x 5.26w x 0.49d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780413519504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRevised Edition\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Methuen Drama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42451867828361,"sku":"9780413519504","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_736b670d-78de-4184-9f56-c2658bb73239.jpg?v=1716103098","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/lear-9780413519504","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
