Annotation:
	"Demonstrate[s] how King Lear represents . . . collective language" by "show[ing] the narrative process or zero narrative . . . and . . . show[ing] the collective, transformative language of nothing that is the counterpart of that narrative process." Argues that "this rebirth of the human, within the tragic community, expresses itself in a secular benediction."
