Summary

The present chapter seeks to provide a selective reference guide to the screen adaptations of King Lear. This essay is divided into three sections listing films, television adaptations as well as derivatives and selected citations. In each section, adaptations are classified in chronological order followed by an alphabetical list of relevant critical studies, and a system of cross-references has been designed for those entries making reference to two or more screen adaptations. I have included theatrical productions such as Richard Eyre’s King Lear (1998) in the television section if there are significant changes between the original stage design and the television programme, and in these cases I have only selected studies making specific reference to the recorded version. As far as the derivatives and citations are concerned, I have only listed those which have been discussed by critics.
