Excerpt from The Tudor Drama: A History of English National Drama, to the Retirement of Shakespeare It is probably not hard to defend the chronological limits and the title of this essay. There would seem to be a practical convenience in a treatment commencing with the earliest evidences of English national drama and closing with the highest accomplishment of that drama in the work of Shakespeare. Nor does it appear a gross exaggeration to include this entire evolution within the confines of The Tudor Drama for though most of the specimens discussed in the first two chap ters had their original inception in the century before the Tudor era began, there can be no doubt that they still remained at the opening of our period the most characteristic expressions of English dramatic genius.

Excerpt from Elizabethan Drama Luckily the clue to which the beginner generally trusts is on the Whole the best. Elizabethan drama centres in Shakespeare, not merely for the general reader, but also for the professional student. Shake speare seems to have tried nearly every form or plan suggested by his predecessors and given it in many cases its supreme expression. Moreover, to an extent which was at one time greatly under-estimated, his successors recognized his pre - eminence and started from his achievement.

Excerpt from Charlecote, or the Trial of William Shakespeare E are in a strait to frame an excuse for what may seem to some an act of literary vandalism. When Walter Sav age Landor wrote his Cita tion of William Shakespeare, he gave to English literature one of its masterpieces. Who so addeth to or taketh away from such a work committeth a literary sin. The State protects its citizen who conceives a fancyand develops it to a practical invention. Under certain con ditions the State permits ah other to utilize the prior inven tion when a combination in which it is used is marked and differing. We can only creep under this protecting wing and justify ourselves in its lati tude. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Shakespeare is usually set apart from his contemporaries, in kind no less than quality. This book, the long-awaited final volume in the Oxford History of English Literature, sees Elizabethan drama as drawn together by a shared need to deal with contradictory pressures from heterogeneous audiences, censorious authorities, profit driven managers, and authors looking for classic status and social esteem. Hunter follows the compromises and contradictions of the Elizabethan repertory, examining how Shakespeare and his fellow dramatists were able to move easily from vulgar realism to poetic transcendence.

Excerpt from The Works of Shakespeare: The Tragedy of Hamlet This edition Of Hamlet aims in the first place at giving a trustworthy text. Secondly, it attempts to exhibit the variations from that text which are found in the primary sources - the Quarto of I 604 and the Folio of I 62 3 - in so far as those variations are of importance towards the ascertainment Of the text. Every variation is not recorded, but I have chosen to err on the side Of excess rather than on that of defect. Readings from the Quarto Of 1603 are occa sionally given, and also from the later Quartos and Folios, but to record such readings is not a part of the design Of this edition. The letter Q means Quarto 1604; F means Folio 1623. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Shakespeare in the Theatre The interdependence of Shakespeare's dramatic art with the form of theatre for which Shakespeare wrote his plays is seldom emphasized. The ordinary reader and the everyday critic have no historic knowledge of the Elizabethan playhouse; and however full the Elizabethan dramas may be of allusions to the contemporary stage, the bias of modern dramatic students is so opposed to any belief in the superiority of past methods of acting Shakespeare over modern ones, as to effectually bar any serious inquiry. A few sceptics have recognized dimly that a conjoint study of Shakespeare and the stage for which he wrote is possible; but they have not conducted their researches either seriously or impartially, and their conclusions have proved disputable and disappointing.

Excerpt from Shakespeare's Heroes on the Stage IN the kindly notices, by the critics, of Shake speare's Heroines on the Stage, the suggestion was made, in a number of instances, that a companion volume, treating of remaining plays and of the Heroes, might prove a useful accompaniment; and for that reason this volume (entirely distinct from the other, and dealing almost entirely with another series of Shakespeare's plays) has been written.

Excerpt from Shakespeare and America The "New World" was the dominant thought in the secular mind of England from the time of Henry VII. to that of James I. The explorations and discoveries of John and Sebastian Cabot, following the voyages of Columbus and Vespucius, created a spirit of adventure and colonization which all the religious controversies of the reigns of Henry VIII. and Edward VI. could not allay. The old explorers had filled the world with their renown and had opened doors of opportunity, to enter which a whole generation of brave, ambitious men sprang forth in the glorious age of Elizabeth. The thought uppermost throughout Europe in that epoch of progressive ideas was "America. The adventurer spoke the word with awe; the financier conjured with it until fortunes rose from the depths of his excited imagination; colonists planned settlements and their development; religionists saw new fields open for the propagation of Christianity among the heathen; statesmen reckoned on conquests and territorial acquisition, while Kings on their thrones dreamed of vaster empires.

Excerpt from The Plays of Shakespeare: King Henry Vi, Second Part Shakespeare was not the only dramatist in Eliza beth's reign who could write vigorous lines of dramatic poetry: It does not at all follow that in an Old play to which Shakespeare may have contributed, all the best lines were of his writing. It was not by the mere writing of good verses that Shakespeare grew to be the master-poet of the world; and when he revised these plays on the most desolating Of our English civil wars, he had not reached the fulness of his power. He was simply helping to lay stress upon the miseries of civil war, at a time when many Englishmen began to dread that there might be civil war again, arising out of rival claims to the throne after the death Of Queen Elizabeth.
