Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Old Actors, Vol. 1 of 2 Although a portion of the material of these volumes has appeared in the pages of "Temple Bar," this work claims to be much more than a mere reprint. Detached Essays have been linked together so as to form a chronological history of actors and acting from Shakespeare to Macready. Some of the Essays which have appeared have been considerably expanded, others have been relieved of irrelevant matter, and a number of new sketches have been introduced. As it was necessary to draw the line somewhere, however arbitrarily, I have omitted, with very few exceptions, the names of all actors whose stage career extended beyond Macready's. Many admirable actors are thus unmentioned who well deserve a place in every history of their profession; but besides want of space I have no desire to enter the arena of contemporary criticism.

IN England, as in France, plays founded upon Scriptural stories or on the lives of the saints were the earliest forms of dramatic representation. These were generally performed in the churches by monks and parish clerks. About the time of Henry VI. A new sort of entertainment came into vogue called The Morality, ' an allegory of the passions, the principal personage of which, The Vice, ' a witty attendant of the Devil, was afterwards developed into that indispensable character of the Elizabethan drama, the clown. In consequence of the profanity and indecency of these exhibitions, Bishop Bonner in 1542 issued a mandate in which he forbade any ecclesiastic henceforth appearing upon the public stage.
