Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tragedies to Which Are Added a Few Sonnets and Verses Mr. Stephens, are conscious of power which has not oh tained the fair opportunity of trial before living audiences, to console themselves by the expression of their belief that, with the exception of a few modern tragedies which cannot get represented, the hundred and eighty years since the adoption of the odious monopoly has not pro duced a single Play that will live at the present cen tury but it would ill become one whose dramatic efforts have obtained their full measure of attention, to sit thus in judgment on those of his contemporaries who have not only attained splendid theatrical success, but high and lasting renown. I may be allowed to add that, while I am not only content but happy to attribute much of the success of the two first Dramas to personal regards, I feel that it was an honest success; for, believing that the liberal issue of orders has conduced greatly to impair the love for the Drama, and to impoverish the managers of theatres, Ihave always declined to solicit or use them and have never obtained, or written, or given one on any representation of either of my Plays.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tragedies to Which Are Added a Few Sonnets and Verses In publishing the following Dramas in a cheap and compact form, I have little to express except my thanks for the indulgence which has been extended towards them. If I had felt at liberty to alter them, I should have been tempted to do more than correct some verbal errors, and curtail a few palpable redundancies of language; but I feel that when a work has been once fairly presented to the public, and, to the full extent of the author's hopes, accepted, he is no longer at liberty to treat it as exclusively his own; and, therefore, I have confined my own corrections within the narrow limit I have suggested. In addition to the few sonnets which accompanied the former editions, I have collected a few more which have appeared in periodical works, and added some verses which have not been before printed. Here I might close this preface - as the slender matters which have reference to each Drama have been noticed in the Advertisement prefixed to each - if I did not think that I ought not to allow the present occasion to pass without noticing a misconception of the author of "The Hungarian Daughter," which, although not perhaps calling for a separate protest, and certainly not justifying any hostile remark, should not pass unnoticed in a collected edition which includes the passage on which it is founded. Mr. Stephens - an author endowed with real tragic power, though not perhaps always adapting it to the purposes of theatrical representation - sharing with other Dramatic Poets the strong and natural desire of seeing works designed for the stage presented upon it - seems to have divided the plays of the present day into two classes, "the acted" and the "unacted," as if the distinction implied some essential difference in merit or kind, and not a mere difference of fortune; and to have sought for the latter a great pre-eminence in critical opinion over the former.

This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Militant God, and Some Sonnets, Verses, and Rhymes A drama does not require a preface. Aristotle puts it well for he says: A tragedy must be complete in itself. Lessing adds a bit in his Dramatic Notes when he defiantly states in so many words: I can announce to an audience, my plot before the curtain arises and then those in the theatre should enjoy the play as well as if the story had not been told to them. Charles F rohman was unquestionably the Pericles, or the Elizabeth of modern times. The world knows Charles Frohman. However, that name was a trinity. There were three brothers and perhaps the greatest was the least known and the purity of soul of the entire organization really belonged to a woman, the wife of one of them. The writer once enjoyed the great privilege of being the Literary Manager and Play Reader for a Frohman. In that capacity the author read and analyzed more than fourteen hundred plays and in each, found, at least, the germ of a drama.
