. He is a very good young man; but like many other good young men he is not interesting in himself — he is only the occasion of our interest in others. The drama neither rests upon him nor moves by his means; and yet without him it would halt. — Richard Grant Whitk, Atlantic Monthly, July, 1880. Edmund, in Shakespeare's tragedy, King Lear (1605), the natural son of the Duke of Gloucester, who succeeds in disinheriting his younger brother Edgar, the legitimate issue. Both Gonenl and Regan are in... love with him, and the latter on her husband's death designs to marry him, but is poisoned by the jealous Goneril. Edmund suggests lago; but with other minor diflferences — differences of person and of manner — there is this great unlikeness between them: Edmund is not spontane- ously malicious; he is only supremely selfish and utterly unscrupulous. For he, too, has a comprehensible reason for his base and cruel actions. It was not his fault that he was illegitimate. He was no less his father's son than Edgar was; and yet he found him- self with a branded stigma upon his name.
