King Lear's tragic flaw is his value of appearances and his inability to accept reality. Throughout the play, Lear wishes to be treated like a king, yet he wants no responsibilities for his kingdom. Instead, he splits his kingdom and has his daughters rule over their given region. Likewise, he tests his daughters to see which of them are willing to make the grandest testement of love for him. Although he truly knows Cordelia loves him the most, he disowns her for her lack of an outlandish and public display of love. In both instances, he allows his love of appearances to get in the way of reality.
