King Lear and Cordelia are sent to prison after being captured by Cornwall's troops. When they appear at the end of the play, King Lear walks in carrying Cordelia's corpse. She died in prison during the battle between Cornwall's troops and French troops. Lear, after a grief-ridden monologue, dies because the emotional strain is too great i.e. "died of a broken heart".
Cordelia's father is King Lear,
Cordelia is the youngest daughter of the title character in Shakespeare's play " King Lear".
Upon learning of his daughter Cordelia's death by hanging, at the instruction of Edmund, King Lear dies of grief.
M. Cordelia E. Leigh has written: 'The pageant of nature'
Cordelia is hanged (off-stage) at the order of Edmund. This is because they were on different sides in the civil war and now she must be (rather pointlessly!) put to death.
No, by no means. Lear dies of old age, his end brought on by his distracted grief at the death of his dearest daughter Cordelia and his exertions in attempting to defend her. Cordelia is indeed hanged, but she did not hang herself.

They are over powered and imprisoned. Edmund then arranges for Cordelia to be hung. He later repents, sends someone to stop it but is too late causing Lear to carry her body on stage uttering possibly the most difficult line of any play "Howl, howl, howl, howl." To see that line performed perfectly look up the screen version where Ian Holme plays Lear, on of the best adaptations I've seen.
