Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Enterprises of Robert William Elliston, Comedian The mere circumstantial account of an actor's professional career, however celebrated he might have been, would scarcely be deemed a subject of general interest, at this precise moment. The social world is less occupied in the matter of plays, and has less sympathy with players, than in past days, and the drama forms not so distinct and leading a feature in popular enjoyment as it once did. True it is, playhouses are open and frequented; but this is not altogether our question. The drama, in its nobler form, is neither studied nor represented, nor have modern Societies any honours in store for dramatic distinction. How strange and out of date would now appear the expression of Sir Richard Steele: "Nothing makes a man so popular," says he, "as the authorship of a new play;" - few things, in our day, attract so little notice. The slight which attaches to the inventive claim must in equal degree await the ministers of its effects. The graces of the actor are cramped in the shrunken measure of degenerate taste, and he must be content to take only such rewards as an unsupported school of art may offer him.
