Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Another Book on the Theatre The ambition to become a dramatic critic assails probably nine city boy-children out of ten in that epoch which lies between their ambition to become President of the United States (an ambition rejected not later than the age of eleven by all better-class youngsters) and the somewhat loftier subsequent ambition to marry Gaby Deslys. This ambition to grow up to be a professional remarker on the theatre is variously inculcated in youths. In the first place, they have at a very early age read the critical works of Mr. William Winter. A careful perusal of these standard critical works has convinced them that dramatic criticism is the pastime of taking luncheon with beautiful and prominent Shakespearean actresses. In the second place, they have read in the Sunday newspaper supplements many interviews by the dramatic critic of the paper in which that bored bird has recited the manner in which superb actresses have received him in their lacy peignoirs.

It is a neat statement and extremely correct, but for us who are not necessarily familiar with the meaning Of such phrases as struggle between human Wills, motivated by emotion rather than by intellect, and expressed in terms Of Objective action, it may seem a little too pat.

Download or read book The New Movement in the Theatre (Classic Reprint) written by Sheldon Cheney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Movement in the Theatre I have a certain respect for authority, but very little respect for what is commonly taken (like medi cine) as authoritative criticism. If a point of view has been established in writing these essays, it is that of the student. The authority necessarily judges by set standards, and when vital changes come he is all at sea; whereas the student is free to seek gold where he will. Thus I have sifted the sands of many a new current - and here the resulting treas ures are offered to him who has patience to read. If the authority complain that the opierings have not the sanction of time, I may only retort that I believe the over-enthusiastic student is a better guide than the over-cautious critic. Nothing has been put down here in haste or Without thought. If my judgments still fail - if I seem too tolerant toward the things that are new - it must be because futurism appeals to me more than archaaology as a force for progress in art. In writing of the arts of the theatre I would rather be a futurist than an archivist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Insurgent Theatre In this book it has been my purpose to treat the recent events in the non-commercial theatre as these refer to organization and management. I have purposely made no attempt to deal with the literary aspects of plays written for and produced by the so-called "insurgent" theatres. This matter would raise a large and interesting set of questions, which are not, in my judgment, while the plays are in a condition of development, ripe for present treatment. Those who are interested in play lists will find repertories of the theatres represented in this book in the Appendix. I wish to express my gratitude to the directors of theatres and companies for the courtesy with which they have provided me with information. I am under particular obligation to Miss Helen Arthur, Mr. Sheldon Cheney, Mr. Charles Recht, and Mr. G. P. Baker for general material, and to Mr. John B.Andrews for information as to child-labour laws as they apply to the theatre.

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.
