Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Tales From Shakespeare Although in the following pages I have chosen those plays, or most of them, which Charles and Mary Lamb omitted from their Tales from Shake speare, and although I have. Taken a title very like theirs, my attempt has not been to round off or tag a conclusion to their inimitable work. They, as wise judges of what their book should be, found that a certain class of play lay outside their purpose. It is just these plays - the historical ones - which, with a different purpose, are here cast into narrative form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Shakespeare Most of those who have asked this advice are, I am inclined to think, very young, as indeed some of them say they are and a large proportion are plainly girls just beginning to feel their way in literature, and they ask, in the words of one of them, How shall I begin? And which plays shall I read first, so as to be sure to like them and their author? Such uncertainty, I must confess, does not promise any genuine, strong taste for Shakespeare. Boys are of slower mental growth than girls, especially upon the poetical and sentimental Side; but no boy who is a born Shake speare-lover needs to ask such a question as that at sixteen. He has then already stepped in too far to pick his way or to turn back. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Hamlet Particularly was this true in connection with the drama. Plays founded (for the most part) on the Bible had been popular all over England for centuries. Then, as the Latin comedies and tragedies - especially those of Plautus and Seneca - were more and more studied in the schools, and as the influence of the Renaissance in Italy and France had Spread to England, the field had widened. And just at the time when Shakespeare arrived in Lotfl' a group of young university men were giving the drama a fresh impetus and enlarging still further its scope. Plays of all sorts were being written, in response to the varying popular demand; delicate court comedies, like John Lyly's; plays that experimented in many fields, like those Of Peele and Greene; crude but powerful tragedies, like Kyd's; dramas like -marlowe's, that expressed, in the new medium of blank verse, the boundless aspirations of the time; plays that dealt with history, mythology, fairy lore, adventure, crime - everything was grist that came to the playwrights' mill, and the demand for more plays was steadily growing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Shakespeare: His Homes and Haunts To study the life history of a man and to consider its setting is to understand why he succeeded and how he came to fail, and our wonder at his success will not be lessened when we find that some simple event, favourable or untoward, was the deciding factor in a great life. The hour brings the man, but circumstances mould him and chance leads him to the fore, unless it be true that there's a Divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will. In our own time we have seen how the greatest empire-builder of Victorian history, Cecil John Rhodes, came into prominence because he was sent to South Africa for the cure of weak lungs. And, looking back to the life and times of William Shakespeare, who has summed up for so many of his fellow-countrymen, and still more strangers, the whole philosophy of life, we shall see that he became articulate through what he may have reasonably regarded as mischance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice Night had fallen as they drew near to Belmont. The moon light lay spread among the statues and cypresses in Portia's garden, where on a grassy bank the two lovers, Lorenzo and Jessica, talked together in low antiphons such as lovers use, and in the pauses of their talk gazed and drank in the beauty of the heavens. Word had come that the mistress of the house would return home before daybreak and close upon this came a mes senger with the news that Bassanio, too, might be expected. Lorenzo called for music: no gentler or more gracious welcome could there be for the home-comers, should they be arriving; and if not, still he and Jessica could sit till the moonlight faded, and let the sweet sounds creep in their ears, while the stillness of the garden, the embracing silent night, made harmony with the hidden lutes, as the listening heart might hear its own beating harmonies whispered back from the stars paving the floor of heaven.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Judith Shakespeare, Vol. 3: A Romance She tried to extract some music from her sister's lute, but that was a failure; she tried half a dozen other things; and then it occurred to her - for the morning was fine and clear, and she was fond of the meadows, and of Open air and sunlight - that she would walk round to the Grammar School and beg for a half -holiday for Willie Hart. He, as well as Bess Hall, was under her tuition; and there were things she could teach him of quite as much value (as she considered) as anything to be learned at a desk. At the same time, before going to meet the staring eyes of all those boys, she thought she might as well repair to her own room and smarten up her attire - even to the extent, perhaps, of putting on her gray beaver hat, with the row of brass beads.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Roman Plays and Their Background Shakespeare's Roman plays may be regarded as forming a group by themselves, less because they make use of practically the same authority and deal with similar subjects, than because they follow the same method of treatment, and that method is to a great extent peculiar to themselves. They have points of contact with the English histories, they have points of contact with the free tragedies, but they are not quite on a line with either class. It seems, therefore, possible and desirable to discuss them separately. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
