Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten More Plays of Shakespeare The scenery is less marked than it is in Twelfth Night or in As You Like It. It is of a palazzo and a garden, with pleached alleys, arbours, and an orchard; and the rest is placed in a church and the streets of Messina. Of late, it has been (like many other Shakespeare plays) made into a most spectacular affair, and this is a great mistake. When dances and elaborate pageantry and fanciful additions are crowded into it, the spectacle devours the drama; the soul of Shakespeare seems to fly out of the words, the inter-play of the characters tends to be swamped, their thought and passion to be overlaid; and we say to ourselves How much better it were could I but read this play at home in a pleasant twilight.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Ten Plays of Shakespeare When grimness or sulks at life get down to the centre of a man, they disease his judgment, weaken his intelligence, dim his sight, disenable his feeling; and, if he be an artist, enfeeble his grip of his subject, disperse his concentration, deprive him of that creative apartness from his materials which enables him to use them as he pleases for the making of a new thing. He loses, that is, the divine command of his genius, not only over the comedy of life, but also over its tragedy. Deeply as Shakespeare felt the woe, wickedness, and weakness of humanity, he was still their master. If he was in them, he was also beyond them, and in this twofold relation to them lay his artistic mastery of tragedy. It was the same with Sophocles, and it is this which makes him greater than Euripides. This power to stand outside as well as inside of human sorrow belonged to Shakespeare, because at the deepest root of him was, I repeat, delight in life; even rapture - the word is not too strong - with the playfulness of its spring and the fulness of its summer.

Download or read book Ten More Plays of Shakespeare written by Stopford A. Brooke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten More Plays of Shakespeare Much Ado About Nothing is the first of those three enchanting comedies which, stars of the first magnitude, form in Shakespeare's sky a separate and brilliant constellation. The other two plays, in the order of their birth, are As You Like It and Twelfth Night. Two years - 1599, 1600 - saw their glory rise and shine. The story of Hero and Claudio (an island of tragic sorrow circled in this play by gay and glancing tides of comedy) is taken from an Italian source, from a novel of Bandello, or from Ariosto's version of the same tale in the Orlando Furioso, both of which Shakespeare, if he did not read Italian, could have found, one in a French and the other in an English translation. The brightness, joyousness, and wit which, in the persons of Benedick and Beatrice, play round this sad tale, and which in the end strengthen its sadness into happiness, are Shakespeare's own invention; and so is the lower comedy of Dogberry and Verges, which, blundering through their stupidity into humour for the audience, is set into pleasant contrast with the native wit and clear intellect of Benedick and Beatrice. What is sad in the play is from Italy: what is gay is from Shakespeare. Nevertheless Benedick and Beatrice, though invented in England, are Italian in nature rather than English.
