My oxford edition of Hamlet says that modern scholars think that King Lear is generally the better play
Is this true?

It's basically a competition between the youthful insanity of Hamlet vs the senile insanity of Lear. Honestly we cannot even be sure if Hamlet was really insane or it was a ruse, but the dark mysterious atmosphere makes the entire play very compelling. Whereas Lear is definitely mad with grief. As far as remaining characters are concerned Hamlet is far better, with Polonius, Claudius, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Ophelia, etc. Lear's characters are comparably less memorable except Gloucester and his sons

Probably one of the greatest Shakespeare stories (and tragedies of all time in general) right next to The Tempest. A great study into power and the blindness of deceit to gain power, in this case, being the daughters who wish to hasten Lear's downfall to seize power from an eventually frail and fragile old man.

Absolutely read it as soon as possible OP.
