This biographical indifference continued for many years, and long before the season arrived for a real curiosity to be taken in the subject, the records from which alone a satisfactory memoir could have been constructed had disappeared. At the time of Shake speare's decease, non-political correspondence was rarely preserved, elaborate diaries were not the fashion, and no one, excepting in semi-apocryphal collections of jests, thought it worth while to record many of the sayings and doings, or to delineate at any length the characters, of actors and dramatists, so that it is generally by the merest accident that particulars of interest respecting them have been recovered.

This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the Life of Shakespeare, Vol. 2 The biographical lines upon which the present work is constructed have already been sufficiently exhibited, but in commencing a new volume, one in which so many of the leading documentary evidences are introduced, a few words in explanation of the system that has been adopted in the typographical reproduction of those materials may not be unacceptable. In the consideration of this subject it is not only important to bear in mind that it is beyond the power of type to convey an exact notion of the ancient hands, but also that, if it is employed in their imitation, the student often incurs a greater risk of error by forming his judgment on a view of the letterpress than if he were to accept the readings of an experienced paleographer who had consulted the originals. These are drawbacks that outweigh any possible benefits that could be derived from the use of typographical copies of the early symbols.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Plays, Vol. 1 of 3: With His Life; Histories The inquiry will naturally suggest itself to most readers at all conversant with Shakespearian criticism, What can be the use of any more editorial labour upon Shakespeare, and especially by an American editor After the immense labours of a long succession of critics, most of them learned, industrious, and acute, -some of them among the greatest literary names of the last or the present century, - what can be contributed now and here, either to the purity of the Poet's text, or the illustration of his thoughts? In short, it may be asked, Why would not the wants of the American public be better supplied by a reprint of some one or other of the later and more perfect English editions, than by any attempt at a new one C? These, or similar inquiries, would have occurred to no one sooner than to the present editor himself, had he found his own task undertaken by another. The reply can be best given by stating the manner in which he was led to engage in a labour which he would never have undertaken, Voluntarily, from the first, though it has since proved to him one of those labours we delight in.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of William Shakespeare, Vol. 1 of 10: Life, Etc;; The Tempest, Two Gentlemen of Verona, Merry Wives of Windsor, Measure for Measure In his first edition, to use his own words, he had too timidly adhered to sundry more than questionable readings of the early copies. His second edition exhibited a text greatly amended in this respect; though he had not less strictly conformed to rules of language and construction drawn from that full and varied knowledge of the phraseology of Shakespeare's age, which made him eminent among English scholars. The result was its acceptance generally as perhaps the nearest approach to a correct text now attainable.

Download or read book A Life of William Shakespeare Classic Reprint written by Joseph Quincy Adams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Life of William Shakespeare The materials for a life of Shakespeare have been gradu-a ally assembled by the industry of hundreds Of scholars, extending through more than two centuries; and prob ably little new matter Of importance remains to be dis covered, except through a happy, and at present quite unforeseen, accident. The arduous labors of Professor and Mrs. Wallace in the manuscript archives of England, during the course Of which they examined over a million documents, recently yielded some fresh information; yet the small number Of their finds assures us that nearly all that we are likely to know Of the personal affairs of the great dramatist has already been made pub lic. This stagnation in discovery is perhaps responsible for the tendency, especially marked in the last decade, for writers to deal in fanciful speculation, evolving from Slight evidence, or none worthy of the name, bizarre and Often elaborately detailed hypotheses regarding Shake speare's relations with his contemporaries. But the re sults Of such ingenuity are likely to be as perilous as they are unsubstantial, and for the most part must be ignored by the biographer. On the other hand, some valuable information is now being derived from a study, largely bibliographical, Of the origin of the Shakespearean texts, and of their transmission to us through the medium of the playhouse and the press. True, much remains to be done in this field Of endeavor before absolutely final conclusions are established, yet the main facts which alone are needed for a general biography are already clear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Vol. 1 of 20: With a Life of the Poet, Explanatory Foot-Notes, Critical Notes, and a Glossarial Index This edition has been undertaken, and the plan of it shaped, with a special view to meeting what is believed to be a general want, and what has indeed been repeatedly urged as such within the last few years. It has been said, and, I think, justly said, that a need is widely felt Of an edition of Shakespeare, with such and so much of explana tory comment as may suffice for the state of those unlearned but sane-thoughted and earnest readers who have, or wish to have, their tastes raised and set to a higher and heartier kind of mental feeding than the literary smoke and chaff of the time. I have known many bright and upward-looking minds, - minds honestly craving to drink from the higher and purer springs of intellectual power and beauty, - who were frank to own that it was a Sin and a shame not to love Shakespeare, but who could hardly, if at all, make that love come free and natural to them.

No one who has attended closely to the progress of editorial labour on these writings, from the time of Rowe, who first undertook to revise the ancient text, can doubt that this has often been done. Indeed, unthinking people who have felt themselves offended by a misjudgment of a modern editor, have said, Give as the old editions. This is going too far but the modern editors require to be themselves subjected to editorial revision, and thus again the editorial labour bestowed on these writings becomes mul tiplied.
