***King Lear*** ('Rex Lear') est tragoedia a Gulielmo Shakesperio docta. Descensum per gradus in furorem Lear senis pingit postquam regnum, blandimentis corruptus, in partes binis e suis filiis tribus tribuit, qua pro causa omnes damno miserabiliter afficiuntur. Ludus, e fabula traditionali ortus de quodam Leir Britannico, mythologico rege Celtico, qui priusquam Romani advenerunt regnabat, latissime ad scaenam pelliculasque accommodatus est, primis partibus a pluribus e perpolitis orbis terrarum histrionibus cupide appetitis.

Tragoedia confecta est inter annos fere 1603 et 1606, edita in quarto anno 1608, et in editione in folio (titulo *Mr. William Shakespeares Comedies, Histories & Tragedies*) anno 1623 complexa.
