Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare in His Age Such a picture was not my purpose. I wanted to discover and describe what was happening in England, and even further afield, while Shakespeare was doing this and writing that. We all know that he was finishing Henry V at the time Of Essex's Irish campaign; but what was happening, what were other men doing - statesmen, courtiers, churchmen, sailors, poets and composers - when he married at the age Of eighteen, when he arrived in London, when he was writing Love's Labour's Lost, Macbeth and Pericles, and when he was collaborating with Fletcher? The only thing that matters, of course, is the writing, but it follows that anything that illuminates it is Of some value, and such a synthesis seems to me to be particularly illuminating. King yohn gains by being seen in the light Of the death of Drake, the Cadiz Raid, the Islands Voyage and the poetry of Donne, and Lear in that Of the Hampton Court Conference, Gun powder Plot and Volpone. Then, against this shifting scene Shake speare himself becomes a more comprehensible figure, and, after all, the scene itself is not the least interesting in our history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare and His Age: Six Short Studies I may have met with must be ascribed to the greatness of my subject and to the honest attention of the audience. The suddenness of my call from France to Egypt, and the grievous lack of material in the young library of the University, made my task more difficult to accomplish, andi was forced to trust to a fickle memory more than I care to do. The candid critic is therefore prayed to accord that courteous indulgence which has always been shown by my students.

Chaucer and Spenser were great writers and great men: they shared between them every gift which goes to the making of a poet except the one which alone can make a poet, in the proper sense of the word, great. Neither pathos nor humour nor fancy nor invention will suffice for that: no poet is great as a poet whom no one could ever pretend to recognise as sublime. Sublimity is the test of imagination as distin guished from invention or from fancy: and the first English poet whose powers can be called sublime was Christopher Marlowe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare So Shakespeare has come to his own, as an English man of letters; he has been separated from his fellows, and recognised for what he is: perhaps the greatest poet of all time; one who has said more about humanity than any other writer, and has said it better whose works are the study and admiration of divines and philosophers, of soldiers and states men, so that his continued vogue upon the stage is the smallest part of his immortality; who has touched many spirits finely to fine issues, and has been for.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare in the Eighteenth Century At no time since his death has Shakespeare not been placed upon a pinnacle by himself as the greatest of all English writers. But each age has its own point of View, its own special interests, its characteristic method of treatment; and no age can ever say the last word on anything that is a living and life-giving force. Say the last word on Shakespeare, and Shakespeare is dead. There can never be finality in the criticism of a great author. The truth and the beauty embodied in his work exercise the taste and the acumen of one critic, and remain undiminished and untarnished for the next. All the best criticism of the present day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of William Shakespeare, Vol. 1 Little more than two centuries has elapsed since William Shake speare conversed with our tongue, and trod the self-same soil with ourselves; and if it were not for the records kept by our Church in its registers of births, marriages, and burials, we should at this moment be as personally ignorant of the sweet swan of Avon as we are of the old minstrel and rhapsodist of Meles. That William Shakspeare was born in Stratford upon Avon; that he married and. Had three children that he wrote a certain number of dramas; that he died before he had attained to old age, and was buried in his native town, -are positively the only facts, in the personal history of this extraordinary man, of which we are certainly possessed; and, if we should be solicitous to fill up this bare and most unsatisfactory outline, we must have recourse to the vague reports of unsubstantial tradition, or to the still more shadowy inferences of lawless and vagabond conjecture. Of this remarka able ignorance of one of the most richly endowed with intellect of the human species, who ran his mortal race in our own country, and who stands separated from us by no very great intervention of time, the causes may not be difficult to be ascertained, William Shakspeare was an actor and a writer of plays; in neither of which characters, however he might excel in them, could he be lifted high in the estimation of his contemporaries. He was honored, indeed, With the friendship of nobles and the patronage of monarchs: his. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Age of Shakespeare, Vol. 2: 1579-1631; Drama Few events in our literary history, as the historian Green points out, are so startling as this sudden rise of the Elizabethan drama. The first public theatre was erected only in the middle of the Queen's reign. Before the close of it twelve theatres existed in London alone. Fifty dramatic poets, many of the first order, appear in the fifty years which precede the closing of the theatres by the Puritans; and great as is the number of their works which have perished, we still possess two or three hundred dramas, all written within this period, many of which belong to the world's literature.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare and the Heart of a Child The little girl who is the subject of this book was a child of freedom. Although she loved Shakespeare with an ever-growing affection, she was never tied to books. Her first desire always was to explore, whether in the attic at home, or in the woods and fields, or in strange cities, or in books. Her earliest explorations were out-of-doors. She had that close intimacy with nature which only children and poets may possess. When she was a mere baby she would trudge about for hours hold ing some cherished blossom or some green leaf tipped with red clasped tight in her little hand, content to watch and listen and finding every moment some new thing to admire. She was sensitive to nature's moods. The wind was her playfellow on boisterous days; on a sultry, cloudy morning, she whispered, It listens like rain. And, at a later age, she declared, Everybody who is well and can be out-of doors must be perfectly happy.'

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk-Lore of Shakespeare IT would be difficult to overestimate the value which must be attached to the plays of Shakespeare in connection with the social life of the Elizabethan age. Possessed of a rich treasury of knowledge of a most varied kind, much of which he may be said to have picked up almost intuitively, he embellished his writings with a choice store of illustra tions descriptive of the period in which he lived. Apart, too, from his copious references to the manners and cus toms of the time, he seems to have had not only a wide knowledge of many technical subjects, but also an inti mate acquaintance with the folk-lore of bygone days; How far this was the case may be gathered from the following pages, in which are collected and grouped together, as far as arrangement would permit, the various subjects relating to this interesting and popular branch of our domestic his tory.
