King Lear - 2023 ARCADIA - Buzzpoints App

Question

Alexander Pope standardized the conflation of two different versions of this play, one of which may have been derived from its author’s “foul papers.” For 10 points each:

[10h] Name this play whose two extant versions differ by nearly 300 lines. In each version, a different character speaks this play’s last line: “The oldest hath borne most; we that are young / shall never see so much nor live so long.”

ANSWER: King Lear

[10e] The shorter and more muddled edition of King Lear is its quarto version, while its longer and likely later edition was published in this canonical collection of Shakespeare plays.

ANSWER: First Folio

[10m] The Folio edition adds two more repetitions of this word to King Lear’s final line, which he repeats before he exclaims “Pray you undo this button” and dies.

ANSWER: “never”
