Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plays of Mr. William Shakespeare: As Re-Written or Re-Arranged by His Successors of the Restoration Period In the working out of this great change many absurd situations are created and some of the silliest and otherwise most wretched dialogue to be found in all dramatic literature has been produced. It is not only offen sive from an artistic viewpoint, but also from a moral one. As Scott truly says, in commenting on this feature, Miranda's simplicity is converted into indelicacy and Dorinda talks the language of prostitution before she has ever seen a man. And so it is throughout the play. Not con-tent with the inartistic touch of giving Caliban a sister, he must be rendered more degraded than in Shakespeare. Further, the comic characters are con verted into low bufi'oons who do little but quarrel, drink, and utter foul language.
