Book excerpt: A Select Collection of Old English Plays, Volume 1 by Robert Dodsley After the lapse of about half a century since the issue of the last edition of Dodsley's Select Collection of Old Plays, [1] and the admittance of that work into the honourable rank of scarce and dear books, it seemed a desirable thing to attempt, with such additional improvements as might be practicable or expedient, a revival of a publication which has been a favourite with the lovers of our early drama since its first publication more than a hundred years ago. Between 1744, the date of its original appearance, and 1825, it passed through three editions; and it may be remarked that the tendency in each successive edition has been to remodel the undertaking on the principle of rejecting plays which from time to time have been lifted up (so to speak) into the collected works of their respective authors, and to substitute for them plays which have either suffered unmerited obscurity in original and rare editions, or have lain so far scattered about in various other collections; and in the present instance that principle has been strictly adhered to.[2] We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Excerpt: ...What, thou foolish lad, no such tiling was in my mind. ACTUS SECUNDI, SCENA PRIMA RAGAN, the servant of Esau. Ragan. I have heard it oft, but now I feel a wonder, In what grievous pain they die, that die for hunger. 0 my greedy stomach, how it doth bite and gnaw 1 If I were at a rack, I could eat hay or straw. Mine empty guts do fret, my maw doth even tear. Would God I had a piece of some horsebread here. Yet is master Esau in worse case than I. If he have not some meat, the sooner he will die: He hath sunk for faintness twice or thrice by the way, And not one seely bit we got since yesterday. All that ever he hath, he would have given to-day To have had but three morsels his hunger to allay. Or in the field to have met with some hogs; 1 could scarcely keep him from eating of these dogs. He hath sent me afore some meat for to provide, And cometh creeping after, scarce able to stride. But if I know where to get of any man, For to ease mine own self, as hungry as I am, I pray God I stink; but if any come to me, Die who die will; for sure I will first served be. I will see, if any be ready here at home, Or whether Jacob have any, that peakish mome. But first I must put all my dogs up, And lay up this gear, and then God send us the cup. ACTUS SECUNDI, SCNA SECUNDA. EsAU, the master. BAGAN, the servant. Esau cometh in so faint, that he can scarce go. Esau. O, what a grievous pain is hunger to a man? Take all that I have for meat, help who that can. O Lord, some good body, for God's sake, give me meat. 1 force not what it were, so that I had to eat. Meat or drink, save my life--or bread, I reck not what: If there be nothing else, some man give me a cat. If any good body on me will do so much cost, I will tear and eat her raw, she shall ne'er be...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of school life as a closed narrative environment is well documented, and modern examples such as Malory Towers and Harry Potter show the genre's continued appeal. While there have been several histories of the school story, especially in children's literature, almost all of them take as their starting point Tom Brown's Schooldays. Although occasionally acknowledged in passing, there has never been a complete study of earlier school stories, or of other fictional portrayals of school life before the middle of the eighteenth century. In Before Tom Brown, Robert Kirkpatrick traces the roots of the school story back to 2500BC, when school life was a feature of Sumerian, Egyptian and Graeco-Roman texts written as teaching aids for children. From Chaucer's Canterbury Tales to Shakesperean comedies, he explores for the first time the use of school dialogues in the classroom, in print and on stage, and presents new evidence that the first school novel appeared in 1607. Finally, he examines the role of the school story in the broader development of the novel as the genre became established through the eighteenth century. Readers will be rewarded with a whole new perspective on the history of children's literature.
