The story of King Lear and his daughters was a popular one during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. At least a dozen available books offered the story to anyone wishing to read it, by the time Elizabeth died. The characters were undeveloped in most of these stories, however, making the story a simple narrative that stated an obvious moral. When he began work on Lear, perhaps his greatest tragedy, Shakespeare must have had several versions of this story available to him. He turned the characters into credible human beings with complex motives, however, even though they were based on the stock figures of legend.

During the reign of Queen Elizabeth, the story of King Lear and his sons was very popular and relevant to most Englishmen who knew the course of this story well.

The popularity of this story inspired several authors, creating at least a dozen books available to anyone curious, which remained even after Queen Elizabeth's death.

However, the characters in these books had little personality and were underdeveloped, making the story obvious and not arousing readers' excitement.

Shakespeare had access to these books and probably used them to write his greatest tragedy, King Lear.

Providing a completely new construction and outfit to the characters, Shakespeare show them as credible, complex characters, full of layers and motivations that excited the audience.
