Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations of Shirley's Plays to the Elizabethan Drama The treatment of Shirley's dramas with regard to their sources - chiefly those in the works of the Elizabethan dramatists - is the task which I have attempted to accomplish in The Relations of Shirley's Plays to the Elizabethan Drama. I have dealt with the sources of Shirley's plays in a manner radically differing from that of other similar pieces of research in modern English literature. The influence of the component parts of a literary form upon a modern writer has never before received anything like adequate consideration. I have aimed in the following pages to show that Shirley's true sources were, in perhaps the majority of cases, not single plays, incidents, or characters, but the aggregate, the sum total, of the similar plays, incidents, or characters, of earlier and contemporary playwrights. In other words, I have emphasized particularly the influence upon the plays of Shirley of the stock or conventional elements in Elizabethan dramatic literature. By reason of his chronological position and his unquestionable habit of studying the works of the other Elizabethans, Shirley is one of the best possible subjects for such an essay in historical dramatic criticism, but the method may be applied, I believe, with at least some degree of success to the works of many other modern authors. Aside from whatever light this book may throw upon the sources of Shirley's plays, it may be used to fill, partially, at least, another need.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations of Shirley's Plays to the Elizabethan Drama I have based my study upon the gifford-dyce edition. The early quartos and duodecimos of Shirley's plays are generally so scarce as to preclude their use by many schol ars; and as my treatment of the plays has had to do chiefly with the action and but little with the text itself, I have thought it best to use and to refer to the more accessible (though unsatisfactory) collected edition. I wish to call attention to the fact that in my citations of acts and scenes I have referred to the numbers at their beginnings, and not to those at the tops of the respective pages which are often incorrect.

Excerpt from book: dents, devices, and characters are recognizable, but they survive as the merest formal copies which lack almost without exception that plausibility which we generally find in his plays. In other words, the drama in the decade before the closing of the theaters had throttled itself by its own conventions. Only men of exceptional talent, such as Ford, Shirley, and Massinger were able to rise far above the general level of mediocre imitativeness; of these, the first on account of his courageous yet perhaps misdirected striving for originality, the last two because of their cleverness in the recombination of old elements. The revival of the pastoral under the influence of Queen Henrietta Maria should not be passed over in silence, especially since Shirley has left us a dramatization of part of Sidney's Arcadia. About 1630, the Aminta of Tasso, the Pastor Fido of Guarini, and the Filli di Sciro of Bonarelli were translated. The Faithful Shepherdess was revived. Besides Shirley, Randolph, Heywood, Rutter, Cowley, Goffe, and Glapthorne .ventured into the pastoral field, and they were by no means the only writers who dealt with the affairs of Arcadia during the reign of Charles I (Schelling, Eliz. Dram., II, 139 ff.). It is a matter of record (as a cause and effect of the popularity of the pastoral) that the Queen herself took part in the performance of Montague's Shepherd's Paradise in 1633. C. The Theaters And Companies By the year 1625 theatrical conditions had become fixed. Although we are unable to trace the history of the minor playhouses very satisfactorily, there is nothing like the confusion of companies and theaters of fifteen or twenty years earlier. Now certain companies occupied certain theaters exclusively. Probably few changes of house took place and few reorga...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most neglected of the English Renaissance playwrights are the major Carolines—Philip Massinger, John Ford, James Shirley, and Richard Brome. Writing in the 1620s and 1630s, always in the shadow of their great precursors, Shakespeare and Jonson, they have often been dubbed mere purveyors of slick, escapist sensationalism who avoided the great issues of their day and turned away from the impending breakdown of English society. Ira Clark's revisionist book shows us these dramatists and their time whole, particularly through analysis of their treatment of sociopolitical issues—issues that find echoes in twentieth-century concerns. For each of these playwrights, Clark sketches his known social circle, describes characteristic social and political stances and dramatic techniques, and provides a detailed reading of an exemplary play. In considering their artistry, he notes their variations on traditional dramatic characters, situations, and styles. Where their predecessors had offered deep psychological portrayals, the Carolines, he finds, present characters whose roles grow out of their social relations. The issues they engage range from the sovereignty of King or Parliament and the criteria for social mobility to parental dominion and the rights of women and children. Their presentations range from conservatism—Ford's distilled and Shirley's playful—through Massinger's accommodation, to Brome's extemporaneous experimentation. The Carolines' theatrical world, Clark argues, is accessible to modern readers through the social theories of our time, which depend on their "world as a stage" trope for such concepts as symbolic interactionism and the ritual inculcation of social cohesion. This important book sheds new light on both the artistic and the political climate of seventeenth-century England.
