Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Tragedies This play shows in many ways that it belongs to the youthful productions of Shakespeare. Its theme is the passion of youth; it has the wild freedom and intensity of youth. There is a lack of that severity of treatment which belongs to the later works of the Poet; there are parts which seem very loosely connected with the fundamental thought, and then again there are other parts developed at length which appear quite unnecessary to the action. There is often a sensuous fullness of delineation, and often an abstract brevity; there are found the finest and purest bursts of poetry intermingled with frigid conceits and far-fetched antitheses. Everywhere in the drama can be noticed an inequality - an inequality in thought, in language, in the structure of the plot. Still, beneath all this play of caprice and irregularity there is felt to be a deep, pervading harmony throughout the entire work. The inequality seems to be the inequality of the subject - the inequality of youth with its fitful, tempestuous passion. It has been well named the tragedy of love, love in all its conflicts, love in all its extravagance and volcanic tossings, love despised and love triumphant. It portrays this passion boiling over with a fervor which sweeps down all traditional barriers, even the most deadly enmity, and which is ready to struggle with death itself. The theme is therefore love, unconquerable, irresistible, of which the individual is the merest instrument, ready to be sacrificed without the least hesitation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Shakespeare's Tragedies Act I. When the curtain rises we perceive a desert place, between the upper and under world, illuminated by weird lightning flashes, where three witches suddenly appearing, exchange greetings, and decide to meet Macbeth upon the heath, after the battle is over. Then they vanish, chanting the weird refrain, 'Fair is foul, and foul is fair!' In the next scene we behold the camp where the Scotch king, Duncan, eagerly questions a bloody messenger who announces his troops are fighting bravely, and that Macbeth in particular has done wonders, having conquered the worst of the rebels and fixed his head upon the battlements. Full of admiration for a feat which will assure his mastery in the realm, Duncan further learns with joy that the Norsemen, who recently made a descent upon his kingdom, are to be met by Banquo and Macbeth, who long to annihilate them also.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Readings New Renderings of Shakespeare's Tragedies, Vol. 1 In the final form which the following notes assume, their gradual method of growth, and my constant residence in the country out of the reach of libraries, have left some traces which may seem to need explanation. I have for many years been accustomed to read Shakespeare's Plays in Reed's edition of twenty-one volumes, and for my own behoof to inscribe with a pencil on its margin such interpretations and amendments as suggested themselves, where I could not fully approve any of the classical comments collected in that publication. All my sources of information were accordingly for a long time limited to the notes printed in those volumes. After some years however I added Dyce's second edition to my stock as a book of reference. The reprint by Steevens of twenty quarto copies; the photographic reprint of the first folio by Staunton; Halliwell's photographic impression of all quarto editions issued during Shakespeare's life; and the fourth folio itself, followed one the other into my possession at distant intervals, and were more or less often consulted after I had obtained them.

For these extracts I have substituted comments of my own, in the course of which I have attempted to settle some ques tions that have been much discussed, but, to my think ing, never satisfactorily answered. I have endeavoured to show how Shakespeare himself answers them, instead of reading into the play what is not there, as some excellent critics seem to me to have done.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet Q 1 differs so considerably, and in so many minute details, from the received text, that the variations can not be rightly exhibited in notes; it must be read in its entirety, and happily it is easily accessible in the facsimile by Praetorius, in Mommsen's reprint, in the Caiizorielge Shakespeare, in Furness, and (with most advantage for the student) in the New Shakspere Society's reprint of Parallel Texts of t/ze First Two Quartos, admirably edited by Mr. Daniel. Such readings as have been adopted from Q I into the text of modern editors have a special claim to attention; these I have, with few exceptions, recorded, and have added in notes and in Appendix I. Several lines and passages differing from the received text in a way which can hardly be accounted for by errors of the printer or reporter. In these, or in some of these, we probably find work of Shakespeare discarded in his revision of the play.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Tragedy of Macbeth: With Introduction, and Notes Explanatory and Critical; For Use in Schools and Classes Ibis highly probable, to say the least, that the tragedy was then fresh from the Poet's hand, and. Was in its first course of performance. Some arguments, indeed, or seeming argu ments, have been adduced, inferring the play to have been written three or four years earlier but I can see no great force in them. On the other hand, it appears that' Forman had long been an habitual frequenter of play-houses and it seems nowise likely that one so eager in quest of novelties would either have missed the play, had it been put upon the stage before, or have made so special a notice of it, but that he then saw it for the first time. Nor have the characteristics of the work itself any thing to say against the date in ques tion 3 those portions of it that have the clearest and most unquestionable impress of Shakespeare's hand being in his greatest, richest, most idiomatic style.

The heart of Aristotle's doctrine Of katharsis, in truth, does not lie in this manner Of hamartia, whether in Hamlet or in much Of his own material in Greek tragedy, in Sophocles' Philoctetes or Antigone, for ex ample, both plays barely touched upon by Aristotle. Poetic justice in its usual sense will not serve to purge our emotions, nor to reconcile us to catastrophe. Yet some satisfaction Of our sense of justice is necessary if the tragic emotions are not to be heightened and to remain unresolved in a final disharmony.
