Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from The Troublesome Raigne of John, King of England<br/><br/>For, as a matter of fact, very few purely literary critics see how all-important such skill is to every dramatist  what it has done, above all, for Shakespeare. The principles and details of the con struction of plays for the stage, their division into acts and scenes, and the minor rules which regulate such matters as entrances, exits, and so forth, may seem but small things compared with the power which creates living characters, the genius which produces the high poetry yet those lesser qualities were in very truth indispensable to his universal fame. Shakespeare would never have been read as widely, nor studied as closely, as he now is by every class, had he not been acted always and everywhere. There is not an evening in the year during which at some provincial theatre in England some play of Shakespeare's is not being acted; on an emergency, country managers will tell you, we always put up Hamlet. N 0 other dramatist ever kept the stage for three hundred years; no other dramatist ever bore translation into every tongue; no other ever so pleased every class of audience, from the roughs of California to the most cultivated gatherings of artists, poets, critics. It cannot be his poetry, his philosophy, his drawing of character, which have thus supremely fitted him for the stage; they could hardly tell so through bad acting and bad translation. It is the way in which he makes the framework of his plots, in which he presents his story and his characters, that gives force to his strong situations, and secures their effect, under however unfavourable circumstances.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an examination of a play that was written at the end of the 16th century, but only reached its final form in the 17th century. The play was written during a time of great political and religious upheaval, when England was grappling with issues of succession, legitimacy, and the role of the church in society. The author explores these issues through the lens of the play, providing commentary on the text and its historical context. The author argues that the play is much more than just a historical drama, and explores themes such as ambition, power, and the human condition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
