Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of Old English Plays: Existing Either in Print or in Manuscript, From the Earliest Times to the Close of the Seventeenth Century; Including Also Notices of Latin Plays Written by English Authors During the Same Period It was not thought necessary to give more than very brief notices of plays by well-known authors, whose works have been collected' by competent editors, such as those of Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Massinger, Beaumont and Fletcher, and others. This work is not intended to supply the place of the valuable introductions of Gifford, Dyce, or Collier but rather to furnish brief useful notes respecting the miscellaneous early English dramas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of Old English Plays: Existing Either in Print or in Manuscript, From the Earliest Times to the Close of the Seventeenth Century; Including Also Notices of Latin Plays Written by English Authors During the Same Period When I proposed to myself the superintendence of a new edition of Langbaine, with the additional matter published by Mr. Halliwell-Phillipps, F. R.S., F.S.A., etc., in 1860, incorporated, I had no conception that beyond the entries and notes which I had gradually drawn together between 1860 and 1890, much would remain to be done. But during the process of amalgamating these insertions, I discovered on every page of the work a proof that my predecessor had discharged his task in a manner infinitely more negligent and perfunctory than I had supposed, and it became indispensable either to relinquish the undertaking, or to submit to the onerous duty of revising the volume from beginning to end. I was too warmly interested in my self-imposed labour to throw it up, and I had to face the sole honourable alternative. No one can even cursorily examine the two impressions side by side without perceiving how entirely the text has been castigated and improved; but, of course, it will be easy for many to point out where I have failed, or might have accomplished more. The Dictionary of Old English Plays of 1860 marked, of course, a great advance on Langbaine, but nothing in comparison with what it might have done in more careful and conscientious hands. There is, as the case stands, scarcely any form of error and misstatement from which the publication is free. The defects of every kind are rather those of the earlier book improperly retained than any for which Mr. Halliwell-Phillipps is directly answerable. But that gentleman seldom put his whole strength into work not immediately associated with Shakespear, and we have here, no doubt, the result of casual and desultory jottings in an interleaved copy of Langbaine. The mischief is that a project of this sort, where the public demand is special and limited, however imperfect it may be, fills the room of a worthier book, and deprives those whose studies or researches are in a dramatic direction of the advantage of possessing a really useful Manual on the subject. The weakest portion of the original work, as it has so far appeared from time to time in print, is that which deals with the earlier dramatic literature.

Book excerpt: This early work by James Halliwell-Phillipps was originally published in 1860 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'A Dictionary of Old English Plays' is a list of works from the earliest times to the end of the 17th century. James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps was born on 21st June 1820, in London, England. Halliwell-Phillipps was privately educated at Jesus College, Cambridge, where he became intensely interested in the subject of antiquarian English literature. He began publishing works in the field at a very young age, including editing Sir John Mandeville's 'Travels' (1839), and writing an 'Account of the European Manuscripts in the Chetham Library' (1842). His love of literature was accompanied by a passion for all things Shakespearian, producing several publications on 'The Bard' and his works, such as 'Life of Shakespeare' (1848), 'Curiosities of Modern Shakespeare Criticism' (1853), and 'The Last Days of William Shakespeare' (1863). He also took a key role in protecting the historical Shakespearian sites in Stratford-Upon-Avon, Shakespeare's town of birth.

IN the year 1691, there was published at Oxford, a work which, for an age that offered small facility or encouragement to the prosecution of researches in the field of early English Literature, was one of extraordinary merit. It is a small octavo volume, never one of great price, and even now to be obtained at the book-stalls of this metropolis for a very trifling sum; and it bears the follow- ing title, -"An Account of the English Dramatick Poets; or, Some Observations and Remarks on the Lives and Writings of all those that have Published either Comedies, Tragedies, Tragi- Comedies, Pastorals, Masques, Interludes, Farces, or Opera's in the English Tongue. By Gerard Langbaine. Oxford, Printed by L.L. for George West and Henry Clements, An. Dom. 1691." The enumeration in this title exceeds, in comprehensiveness, even the liberal summary of Polonius. But the subject well deserves it, for the English of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries were un- questionably the best writers "in the world, either for tragedy, history, comedy, pastoral, pastoral-comical, historical-pastoral, tragical-historical, tragical-comical-historical-pastoral." They were, indeed, "the only men;" and so Langbaine judiciously thought, when he devoted some years to the compilation above mentioned, notwithstanding that he considered it necessary to pay a deference to the then public opinion, by apologizing, as became a Doctor of Divinity, for occupying his leisure in such a frivolous undertaking. Fortunately, in these days, most of us have candour enough to recollect that even St. Paul quotes an "old play," were any excuse requisite for a devotion of time to the consideration of particulars respecting some of the noblest efforts of human genius....
