Like most plays, they each have a protagonist with a so-called ‘fatal flaw,’ a lapse in character that leads to conflict within the story. For Much Ado About Nothing, the protagonist Claudio is gullible, and believes the lie that his love is unfaithful to him. In King Lear, Lear is prideful, and takes his daughter’s refusal to pour praise onto him as a personal affront. Another similarity between the two shows would be the use of misconception to further the plot. Lear believes that his daughter does not care for him and so takes away her inheritance, while Claudio believes that his betrothed has been unfaithful and so shames her on their wedding day.

However, as the play progresses, it becomes apparent that Medea is in actual fact, not infuriated that Jason has left her, but by the fact that Jason will not take responsibility for his actions. She refers to Jason as ‘a coward’ to express this outrage, stating that she cannot comprehend how Jason has ‘blamed [her]’ for his wrongdoing.

This implies that it is time to find this ‘[new] fame’, through abandoning Medea and marrying the King’s daughter, as the fame inherited from Medea’s sacrifices and assistance has diminished.

To the woman, this may seem like the action of a heartless person. What she does not realize is that it may be her husband’s way of expressing love for his son.
