Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exhibition of Prints and Playbills to Illustrate the History of the Boston Stage: 1825 to 1850 1. Pelby (Mrs.) Portrait, as Cherry. D. C. Johnston del. Lith. of Pendleton. Lithograph. She was born at Kinderhook, New York, in 1793, and made her debut at the Federal Street Theatre, Boston, in 1813, as Miss Mortimer in "Laugh When You Can." In May, 1825, she was a member of Price and Simpson's traveling dramatic and equestrian company, at the Broadway Circus, New York. In 1825-6, she played at the Lafayette Amphitheatre; also at the Park, Bowery and Old Chatham Theatres, New York. She afterwards resided principally in Boston, where, under her husband's management, she became one of the principal attractions of the Tremont and National Theatres, and was accounted one of the very best actresses of her day. She retired from the stage, for several years, but was obliged to return to it in 1850, when Mr. Pelby died, leaving her the direction of the National Theatre, which was sold to pay the debts of the estate, leaving her almost without resources. In 1853 she went to California, with her daughter, Julia, but her fortunes were not mended by her stay in the Golden State. During her voyage homeward, on board the steamer "Northern Light," near San Juan del Sud, in June, 1855, she was seized with her last illness, and made her exit from the stage of life, in the 64th year of her age. 2. Playbill. Concert Hall, Corner of Court and Hanover Streets, Boston. Exhibition of the Conflagration Of Moscow. Part First. The Original And Celebrated Automaton Chess Player. Invented by De Kempelin. Improved by J. Maelzel, etc., etc., etc. [1826.] Framed. Maelzel's Automaton Chess Player at Julien Hall, puzzled the quid nuncs - the discovery not then being made of the real automaton inside, who, on a cry of "fire!" started by some wag, made a rapid exit from his limited quarters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exhibition; Prints, Playbills, Advertisements, and Autograph Letters to Illustrate the History of the Boston Stage From 1791 to 1825: From the Collection of Mr. Robert Gould Shaw, April 20 to April 25, 1914 Maiden name Ellen Westray, born at Bath, England, 1777. She became Mrs. John Darley in 1801, and, with the exception of a season or two at Boston, remained on the New York stage, enjoying unbounded favor, till she removed to Philadelphia in 1819, where she continued until her retirement, about the year 1832, playing once, during that period a brilliant star engagement at the Chatham Garden Theatre, New York. Her greatest excellence was found in the gentler heroines of tragedy, or the pathetic characters of the domestic drama. As a vocalist, she could warble the music of her day with great sweetness and expression. She died in Philadelphia in 1848, at the age of 69, as deeply regretted as she had been throughout life respected and admired.

Download or read book Imitation as Resistance written by Raoul Granqvist and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imitation as Resistance also offers American perspectives on the individual reputations of a number of British writers and their specific works, often down to the particular lines in plays and poems. The reader whose interest is limited, for example, to the singular reputation of a Dickens novel or a Byron poem may find the book functional for its broad bibliographical qualities. For cultural studies students, Americanists, and others, the book will demonstrate the complexity of cultural appropriation and the patterns of nineteenth-century American resistance and harmonization.
