Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Original Actors in Shakespeare's PlaysThe ensuing volume is chiefly composed of minute particulars; but particulars, however minute, are not on that account trifling or uninteresting, since they obviously assume importance in proportion to the pro minence or distinction of the parties to whom they te late: these details have reference to Shakespeare, to the great dramatists of his day, and to the principal actors engaged in the original performance of their plays.General readers will hardly be aware of the time and trouble employed in collecting the facts here arranged; and the compiler is afraid to dwell upon them, lest it should be imagined that he is disposed to over-estimate his labours or his acquisitions. He is fully sensible of the many deficiencies of what he now offers: he knows how much remains to be done; but he knows, too, how much more is contained in the following sheets, than was ever discovered or brought together before. Those only who are acquainted with the scanty and imper fect materials of preceding biographers in this depart ment, Will be likely to do justice to the quantity of new information comprised in the volume in their hands. Some few (the author hopes they will be only few) may be of Opinion that, at best, it is a monument of time mispent, and industry misapplied.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
