what are the theses and conflicts of king lear?

Sorry, but this question does not make sense. \n\nA thesis is a statement or an argument that you want to make about something. It sounds like your teacher wants you to make an argument about conflicts in King Lear.\n\nDid you read the play? There are quite a few of them. Look at Lear's relationship with his daughters, for one. He is not getting along with two of them, Goneril and Reagan; and the one who truly loves him, Cordelia, is the one he casts out.

Henry VIII \nby William Shakespeare (1564-1616) \nType of Work: \nHistorical, fictional play \nSetting\nLondon, England; 16th century \nPrincipal Characters\nHenry VIII, Tudor King of England \nKatherine of Aragon, Queen of England \nAnne Bullen, Henry's lover and subsequent queen\nWolsey, ambitious Cardinal of York \nDuke Buckingham, Wolsey's adversary\nDuke of Norfolk and Duke of Suffolk, also Wolsey's enemies\nCranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury \nStory Overview\nTwo noblemen, the Dukes Norfolk and Buckingham, met in the palace to converse. Norfolk was angered by the audacity of Henry VIII, who had signed a peace treaty with Francis I of France - a treaty financed by Cardinal Wolsey of York. Norfolk warned his friend of Wolsey's equal hatred for Buckingham: "Like it your grace, the state takes notice of the private difference betwixt you and the cardinal. I advise you ... that you read the cardinal's malice and his potency together: to consider further, that, what his high hatred would effect wants not a minister in his power." \n\nJust then Wolsey entered the palace and, after exchanging disdainful glances with Buckingham, headed towards the king's chamber. "I read in's looks matter against me," Buckingham whispered. "And his eye reviled me as his abject object .... He's gone to th'king!" Taking note of Buckingham's alarm and anger, Norfolk advised him to act prudently. Still, shortly thereafter, Buckingham was arrested for treason. \n\nMeanwhile, in the throne room, Queen Katherine chided her husband about the heavy tax burden that Wolsey had ostensibly levied on the people. "Your subjects are in great grievance," she said, " and almost appear in loud rebellion." Unknown to King Henry, Norfolk had in actuality instituted a tax, in an effort to stir up Henry's subjects against the cardinal. The king demanded to know what she meant: "Taxation? Wherein? and what taxation? My lord Cardinal ... know you of this taxation?" When Wolsey denied an y knowledge of the affair, Henry immediately had the collections stopped. \n\nKatherine later inquired about the Duke of Buckingham. Why had he been arrested? Henry and Wolsey brought forth their witness to Buckingham's treason. This man claimed to have heard Buckingham say, in effect, that if the king should die without male posterity then he would make the throne his own. Wolsey also stepped forward and further testified that Buckingham had suggested he would go so far as to kill the king in order to gain the scepter. Henry was convinced: "By day and night, he's traitor to the height." \n\nThat week, at a party given by Cardinal Wolsey, Henry met Anne Bullen. He was taken by her beauty and impulsively kissed her. And, on the following day, Henry sent Lord Chamberlain to bestow upon Anne the title of "Marchioness of Pembroke; to which ... a thousand pounds a year, annual support, out of his grace he adds." Hours later, Buckingham was declared guilty of treason and condemned to die. \n\nNow Henry, in the same way that he was accustomed to executing slanderous dukes, was prone also to divorcing his wives. With King Henry's infatuation with Anne, prompt separation from Queen Katherine was inevitable. A court of divorce was convened, in which Katherine, kneeling at Henry's feet, pled her case: "Alas, sir, in what have I offended you?... I have been to you a true and humble wife, at all times to your will conformable ... When was the hour, I ever contradicted your desire, Or made it not mine too?" Then Katherine directed her ire toward Wolsey: "I do believe ... that you are mine enemy; and make my challenge, you shall not be my judge." But Wolsey refused to step down from the judge's seat, and Katherine, realizing that she had already lost her cause to Henry's whims, retired. "The queen of earthly queens," Henry lament

*conflict- many instances of conflicts in this play. Montagues vs. capulets, mercutio vs. tybalt, romeo vs. paris and many more!!!!!\n     *climax- the point of the story where everything is exciting, everything is glorious, great, or magnificent! everything goes downhill from there. i think theclimax is either in the balcony scene or the party.\n     *falling action- secret wedding and after.\n     *resolution- either romeo and juliet's death, romeo's banishment, when romeo buys the poison (?), or when Juliet makes plans with friar lawerence (?)\n     *i know this isn't muc, but it's a starting point!!!!! my class just finished the romeo and juliet unit, so this stuff is fresh in my mind. i'm REALLY sry that i can't figure out the resolution, but if you've read the play thru, you should be able to choose one of these answers!!!!! good luck with your project and grades!!!!!

The Lears were a clan or tribe known for making both corporate jets and insightful situation comedy.  The Lear name today is synonymous with these two endeavors.

They include Pericles, Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale and The Tempest.\n\nTroilus and Cressida has been described as a comedy or a tragedy, and is now generally regarded as a serious satire; All's Well That Ends Well and Measure for Measure are dark comedies, as opposed to the so-called joyous comedies.
