Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare in the Theatre The interdependence of Shakespeare's dramatic art with the form of theatre for which Shakespeare wrote his plays is seldom emphasized. The ordinary reader and the everyday critic have no historic knowledge of the Elizabethan playhouse; and however full the Elizabethan dramas may be of allusions to the contemporary stage, the bias of modern dramatic students is so opposed to any belief in the superiority of past methods of acting Shakespeare over modern ones, as to effectually bar any serious inquiry. A few sceptics have recognized dimly that a conjoint study of Shakespeare and the stage for which he wrote is possible; but they have not conducted their researches either seriously or impartially, and their conclusions have proved disputable and disappointing.

The quarto of 1600 was, on the whole, well printed; and no other edition Of the play is known to have been issued previous to the publicationof the Folio of 1623. The printers of the latter appear to have used a copy Of the quarto belonging to the library of the theatre and corrected for the purposes Of the stage; but the changes are for the most part very slight and seldom for the better, as will be seen by our Afofes below.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Shakespeare This book is written partly for the use of people who are reading Shakespeare, and partly to encourage the study of the plays. Though the plays are the greatest things ever made by the English mind it cannot be said that the English reverence their poet. There is no theatre in London set apart for the performance of Shakespeare. There is no theatre in London built for the right production of Shakespeare. There are not in the empire enough lovers of Shakespeare, or of the poetical drama, or of poetry, to take the British stage from the hands of ground landlords, and make it again glorious with the vision of the pageant of man. These are sad things; for art is the life. Art is the thought of men with vision. When art is scorned it is a sign that the men without vision are in power. "Where there is no vision the people perish." Worldly Empire has always been gluttonous and foolish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare on the State This volmne continues a theatrical chronicle on which I have worked, almost incessantly, for many years, and which I hope to live long enough to finish. The labor has been hard; the product of it, I venture to believe, will prove useful. Persons who consider the Theatre to be merely a shop and who view Theatrical Management as merely the Show Busi ness, cannot be, and are not, expected to feel, or pretend to feel, even the slightest interest in a work which relates to the history, and aims to illustrate the development, of the beautiful Art of Acting. Per m, on the other hand, who believe, as I do, that the Theatre exercises a vast inﬂuence on Society, and thould be cherished and stimulated as a potent agent of civih'zation, will, I am confident, favor the pursu ance of an attempt, - already approved by their cordial welcome of the First Series of these Studies, to present, in a suitably compendious form, an adhentic account of the manner in which, from the beginning, the Plays of Shakespeare have been acted. My purpose and plan are fully stated in the Preface tothefirstvolumeofmy searespeareonteestage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Shakespearean Plays of Edwin Booth, Vol. 1 The truth is that no one of Shakespeare's plays can be pre sented and spoken exactly as it is fashioned and written, and that. In the regular theatre, no one of them ever has been per formed, since Shakespeare's time, without some curtailment. In the Universities and on scholastic occasions the literal original has, now and then, been given. At Stratford-upon Avon, for example, during the Shakespeare Festival, in April, 1899, the whole of Hamle was represented, some of it in the afternoon and the rest of it in the evening. In Shakespeare's period, when theatrical performances oc curred in the day, and when but little use was made of scenery, the whole of such a piece as Richard III' might have been given, but no audience would endure it now. Every actor who, achieving distinction, has attained power, uses his own stage versions of Shakespeare, and if all those versions had been preserved we should possess, in writing, the stage traditions which now, for the most part, are preserved only in memory, of a rapidly vanishing race of players. A considerable number of the ms. Prompt-books used in Drury Lane Thea tre, in the Garrick period and later, do, indeed, exist, in the rich and very remarkable collection made by Augustin Daly but these are inaccessible to the public.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Shakespeare's Comedies IT seems almost a sacrilege to present merely the amework - the dry bones - of those world-famed asterpieces of diction and character drawing, Plays; yet, for their right under enjoyment, it is useful to disentangle ricate and confused substructures upon h they are reared, which (with one possible ex on) were taken' by the poet from earlier plays d transformed and transfigured by his genius.

To the student of literature, the theatre-goer, 1d all worshippers at the shrine of the master poet, e therefore offer in these pages bald but fairly mplete outlines, which follow closely the action the plays, and which for the sake of clearness 1d brevity have been left free from criticism, com ent, and all save the scantiest quotations, although re temptation to insert whole passages proved al ost irresistible.

Book excerpt: The Tempest: A Comedy is a one of the many famous plays written by the well known English playwright, William Shakespeare. A poet, playwright, and actor, Shakespeare is widely considered to be one of, if not the greatest writer in the English language. Frequently referred to as England's national poet, Shakespeare crafted thirty eight plays, two long narrative poems, and one hundred and fifty four sonnets in his lifetime. All of his plays, including The Tempest, have been translated into every major language and are consistently performed more often than plays by any other writer in the history of literature. In this play, Shakespeare examines magical elements not often seen in his other works as he crafts a world and characters that manipulate one another via magical means. The play centers around a father and daughter on an island and the father's attempt to ensnare the King Alonso of Naples into a political upheaval and a marriage between their children. While considered a comedy, this play draws heavily on romantic writings and is influenced by the tradition of tragicomedies. Through its use of illusion, manipulation, and the words of characters, this play has consistent reminders that it is just a play, or rather just another illusion of life. This tactic is one of the reasons that this play stands out to those familiar with Shakespeare's work as an interesting interpretation of play writing and the purpose of plays in the theater. The Tempest: A Comedy is a wonderfully executed play by the incomparable playwright, William Shakespeare. This is a wonderful read for individuals interested in Shakespeare and his work along with individuals with a distinct interest in English plays and theater. This book is bound to be exciting for students of drama, teachers of drama and literature, and playwrights wanting to learn from the best playwright known to man.
