Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Drama, Vol. 2: Comprehending the Best Plays in the English Language; Comedies But it is not only to the French, that we boast ourselves superior in comic writing, but to all our contemporaries. The Comic Muse flourishes most under a free government. Despotism compels uniformity of character; but in this favoured isle every whim may be indulged. No laws operate to restrain ca price; no tyrant watches to punish private folly, controul inconsistencies, or revenge fickleness. In the land of Freedom grows the legitimate food of Co medy and comic characters, in such a country, arrive at maturity, while, in a. More ungenial region, they would have been checked, if not eradicated, in their earliest infancy. If we look to the Spanish, or Portuguese, or Russian thea tre, we see the dramatic genius of the country kept down by the iron rod of despotism. The follies of the nobles must not be lashed; courtiers must not be exposed; and, if you touch upon religious hypocrisy, the doors of the Inquisition are open to receive you. Such is the state of comedy in tyrannic countries and it is with pride, that we contemplate the cause of its excellence in our own.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Drama, Vol. 1: Comprehending the Best Plays in the English Language; Tragedies Having thus vindicated the superior excellencies of the modern drama against the boasted claims of Greece, it would be agreeable to the tenor of the editor's plan, and the objects he has in View, to shew, that Britain pos sesses as decided a pre-eminence, in this branch of literature, over contempo rary nations, as she does over remote antiquity. An examination into the state of the various theatres of Europe would incontestably prove the truth of this remark. But, as our right to the dramatic palm has never been disputed, such an inquiry seems unnecessary. It remains, therefore, to explain the mo tives, which led the editor to the present undertaking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from System of Shakespeare's Dramas, Vol. 2 of 2 The law against incontinence was the one that was first taken by Angelo, and of whose enforcement there was, of course, the greatest need. An old enactment which had long lain dormant, and which prescribed death as the punishment for the offense, is suddenly raked from its obscurity and executed with rigor. Here was formal justice, undoubtedly. Angelo was technically correct the law had never been repealed - yet his conduct under the circumstances was palpably unjust. But the charac ter of the deputy is to adhere simply to this formal side, to the neglect of all others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Of the town of New York, shivered in the damp air, and won dered why the curtain was not raised. In the easiest chair - though not by any means an easy-chair sat the popular Miss Cheer, reflecting on a new tri umph imminent in Cleopatra, but not foreseeing the great disaster of later years, when with beauty lost through advancing age, and with a married name to take away the impressionable charm of maidenhood, she was to return to the stage, after the Revolution, only to be received with dissatisfied silence and to be relegated to minor characters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Drama, Vol. 11 of 14: A Collection of the Most Esteemed Dramatic Productions, With Biography of the Respective Authors and a Critique on Each Play; Containing Distress Mother, Venice Preserved, Oroonoko, Fair Penitent Madam, This tragedy, which I do myself the honour to dedicate to your Grace, is formed upon an original, which passes for the most finished piece, in this kind of writing, that has ever been produced in the French language. The principal action and main distress of the play is of such a nature, as seems more immediately to claim the patronage of a lady: and when I consider the great and shining characters of antiquity that are celebrated in it, I am naturally directed to inscribe it to a person, whose illustrious father has, by a long series of glorious actions (for the service of his country, and in defence of the liberties of Europe), not only surpassed the generals of his own time, but equalled the greatest heroes of former ages. The name of Hector could not be more terrible among the Greeks, than that of the Duke of Marlborough has been to the French.
