Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Course of Lectures on Dramatic Art and Literature, Vol. 1 of 2 A constant habit of analysis gradually induces a dis position to continue the process in a circle, and thence in a series of circles, to the exclusion of any satisfactory result in which the mind and feelings can rest for the only result Obtained, being thus self-involved, or ending where it began, induces dissatisfaction in all things; impairs with morbific and multiplying doubts the facul ties of the mind and when at length this habit, having passed through all its stages of abstract speculation, has, finally, fastened its searching and dismembering talons on the practical relations of life, a more unhappy and pitiable object than an individual so conditioned, we can scarcely imagine to exist among the vast class of self-tormenting mortals. He dissects and decom; poses every motive, however friendly, and, as in the lost and perverse state of Faust, while others enjoy, he reasons on enjoyment.

Scanner. On Dramatic Poetry have obtained high celebrity on the Continent, and been much alluded to of late in several publications in this country. The boldness of his attacks on rules which are considered as sacred by the French critics, and on works of which the French nation in general have long been proud, called forth a more than ordinary degree of indignation against his work in France. It was amusing enough to observe the hostility car med on against him in the Parisian Journals. The writers in these Journals found it much easier to condemn M. Sarasota. Than to refute him: they allowed that what he said was very ingenious, and had a great appearance of truth; but still they said it was not truth. They never, however, as far as I could observe, thought proper to grapple with him, to point out anything unfounded in his premises, or illogical in the con clusions which he drew from them; they generally confined themselves to more assertions, or to minute and unimportant observations by which the real question was in no manner afl'ected.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Course of Lectures, Vol. 2 of 2: On Dramatic Art and Literature A: new epoch of French Tragedy begins with Voltaire, whose first appearance on the theatre, in his early youth, followed close upon the age of Louis the Fourteenth. I have already, in a general way, alluded to the changes and enlargements which he projected, and partly carried into execution. Cor neille and Racine may be said to have led a true artist's life: they were dramatic poets with their whole soul; their desire, as authors, was confined to that object alone, and all their studies were direct ed to the stage. But Voltaire wished to shine in every possible department; a restless vanity would not al low him to be satisfied with the attempt to attain perfection in any one walk of literature; and from the variety of subjects on which his mind was em.
