Excerpt from Select Comedies: Translated From the Italian of Goldoni, Giraud, and Nota
These comedies are more of intrigue than of character, though the characters are often drawn with great power, but are seldom so much elaborated as in the English or German comedy. In comparison with these, they are rather sketches and to be at all tedious the Italian writers seem to consider the greatest of faults. Nor do they sparkle with wit; but we every where meet with happy turns of thought and expres sion, which give pleasure without causing loud merriment, and which, to borrow an observation from Forsyth, excite that secret intellectual smile, which, like the humor of Ad dison, never fatigues. Numerous instances, to which his remark applies, occur in this volume.
