Of yohn Heywood himself it must sufice to say that his life-story, hitherto fragmentary and vague, being re-written (see The Play of the Weather, Tudor Facsimile Texts The most important fact that has in late years come to knowledge, one alstat throws a flood of light on much that has hitherto been vague or inexplicable is the certainty that he was a close connection, by ties and in his social relations, of Sir Thomas More; and that, therefore, he was far from occupying the status of Court fool assigned to him by Sharman, Ward, and others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Friend of the People: A Play in Four Acts To be sure, when a play fails it is not always easy to say why it failed. There is really no formula of success in play - writing. There is an instance of a play that bored a veteran London critic, which, according to his own confession, was just the sort of play that he had been always reviling people for not writing, managers for not producing, critics for not praising. He owned that it was a sincere pre sentment of actual life; that the characters were alive, well drawn and had the value of types; that it was full of food for reflection and innocent of theatrical effects. Yet it made him long to be amused and excited, and he couldn't tell why it failed to interest him with all its facts and ideas. The explanation probably is that the good qualities of the play were wholly negative. The author had mastered the decalogue of prohibitions, but neglected the organic form of emotion which stimulates feel ing as well as thought. Obviously positive merit is better than the negative kind, but yet few of us have the genius that would justify us in defying the seven devils of the theatre. Hence the importance of considering objections from high sources, objec tions not to be found in textbooks on technique or made obvious by object lessons on the stage itself, and therefore unknown to the average novice of the drama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pillars of Society: A Play in Four Acts As regards technique this play is a triumph for the author. It is planned and executed with extraordinary ability. The dramatic structure soars aloft from firm foundations, stone is laid on stone with unfaltering precision, unwearying care, the mortising is admirably exact. There is not a super fluons speech, scarcely a wasted word; and it is not through unnatural soliloquies or tedious expositions that the dramatic web is unrolled before the audience, but through natural and easy conversations, which from the first seize the attention, and continuously work up the interest until' the catastrophe is reached.

He is tall, straight, in a long student's coat, hanging clumsily and loosely upon him. His hair is brushed back smoothly, and is glossy. The dark blue collar of his coat is unusually high. Carl's face is dry, somewhat stern, with regular features, and very decorous. He sits down at the table again and taps it three times, saying: Yes - Yes - Yes. The house painters are sing ing. A sad tune. A quiet tune. I am a scamp, yet I am fond of sad songs, while my brother Henry has no taste at all. And his new apart ment is dreadful. There is something here that inspires crime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
