Book excerpt: Excerpt from System of Shakespeare's Dramas, Vol. 2 of 2 The law against incontinence was the one that was first taken by Angelo, and of whose enforcement there was, of course, the greatest need. An old enactment which had long lain dormant, and which prescribed death as the punishment for the offense, is suddenly raked from its obscurity and executed with rigor. Here was formal justice, undoubtedly. Angelo was technically correct the law had never been repealed - yet his conduct under the circumstances was palpably unjust. But the charac ter of the deputy is to adhere simply to this formal side, to the neglect of all others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book System of Shakespeare s Dramas  Vol  1 of 2  Classic Reprint

Download or read book System of Shakespeare s Dramas Vol 1 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Denton Jacques Snider and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from System of Shakespeare's Dramas, Vol. 1 of 2 In general, the aim of this book is to show each drama as a Whole, in its thought, organization, and characters; then to group cognate dramas into a higher Whole by their common fundamental principle; at last, to behold all the dramas of the Poet as one Whole - in fine, to sum up Shakespeare. Such a plan, if successful, will unfold the system OF the shakespearian drama. To a system of this kind neither too great nor too little value must be ascribed. If we make it a substitute for the beautiful poetic form of which it is hardly more than a skeleton, we misapply it totally. Criticism is' not poetry, and cannot take the place of poetry. On the other hand, an utter resignation to the sensuous glow Of passion is not the true poetical habit. Mere gratification of the senses is bestial, and Art may, in this way, be. Degraded into an instrument of sensuality. The inner spiritual essence must always be felt through - nay, be seen through. Then there is a genuine appreciation; then, too, the senses are lifted up into the realm of beauty, and become angels of purity, by means of the indwelling spirit. Poetry has both sides - a sensuous and an intel lectual; it is not in itself a philosophy, but, without a philosophy, it is in danger of being turned into a temple of the grossest passions.

Book The Lower Depths  Vol  2

  • Author : Maksim Gorky
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2015-08-08
  • ISBN : 9781332463794
  • Pages : 104 pages

Download or read book The Lower Depths Vol 2 written by Maksim Gorky and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lower Depths, Vol. 2: A Drama in Four Acts De profundis ad te clamavi. In this phrase, with his penchant for epitome, the late James Huneker summarized the masterpiece of Russia's single living master of the drama, Maxim Gorky, as he saw it in Berlin under the German title of "Nachtasyl" or "Night Lodging." "Na Dnye" is the Russian - literally "On the Bottom." Partly because "The Lower Depths" is a more faithful rendering of the original than "Night Lodging" and partly because it implies so vividly the play's keynote as the shrewd Huneker detected it beneath a guise alien to both Russian and English, the title adopted by Laurence Irving for the British version has been preferred for its introduction to American audiences by the company which discovered it and first set it on its stage in Moscow, December 31 (our calendar), 1902. In "The Lower Depths" more than in any other single play throughout its history, the Moscow Art Theatre concentrates its dramatic ideals and methods, its esthetic theory and practice, and through the production of this play it most emphatically justifies its artistic faith in spiritual or psychological realism as a dramatic medium of expression. The plays of Tchekhoff, of course, serve the same ends, but no single one of them does so quite as richly as does Gorky's masterpiece. At the hands of Stanislavsky and his associates, "The Lower Depths" draws much of its convincing power from its unusual use of and dependence on the channels of expression which are peculiar to the art of the theatre. It is almost wholly independent of drama as literature. Less than any play I know, is it possible to imagine its potential effect in the theatre from a reading of its printed lines.
