Excerpt from Dramatists of the Present Day The belief is wide spread that the English stage is in sickly mood. Those who should best know its condition loudly lament its decline and are proposing means of cure. The restorative measures which have already been suggested are diverse. Last year there was a prolonged discussion on the subject in the press, between authors, actors, and managers. Mr. Boucicault, who had a remedy, originated the controversy. In the lapsed interval much was achieved; but one thing remained for him to accomplish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from English Dramatists of to-Day Before asking the reader to follow me through the detailed examination of the works of our present-day dramatists contained in these pages, I wish to define my point of view and lay down clearly the latitude and longitude of my position. A very short glance at any of the following essays will show that I take a somewhat gloomy view of the present state of the drama. In this I am not singular. Pessimism is the prevailing attitude of the critical mind with regard to the theatre. The higher criticism despises and ignores it. One might examine the volumes of our great quarterlies ever since their foundation and find scarcely a word in which the existence of an English theatre is recognized. In one or two of the more modern reviews the weight of a name like Mr. Matthew Arnold's procures at long intervals the admission of a thoughtful but unpractical paper upon the theatre of the day. The lower criticism, again, in its more serious moods, inclines to despondency and lamentation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1914 edition. Excerpt: ... JOHN GALSWORTHY HE power of the modern drama as an interpreter of the pressing questions of our time is perhaps nowhere evident as clearly as it is in England to-day. Indeed, while other countries have come almost to a standstill in dramatic art, England is the most productive at the present time. Nor can it be said that quantity has been achieved at the expense of quality, which is only too often the case. The most prolific English dramatist, John Galsworthy, is at the same time a great artist whose dramatic quality can be compared with that of only one other living writer, namely, Gerhart Hauptmann. Galsworthy, even as Hauptmann, is neither a propagandist nor a moralist. His background is life, "that palpitating life," which is the root of all sorrow and joy. His attitude toward dramatic art is given in the following words: "I look upon the stage as the great beacon light of civilization, but the drama should lead the social thought of the time and not direct or dictate it. "The great duty of the dramatist is to present life as it really is. A true story, if told sincerely, is the strongest moral argument that can be put on the stage. It is the business of the dramatist so to present the characters in his picture of life that the inherent moral is brought to light without any lecturing on his part. "Moral codes in themselves are, after all, not lasting, but a true picture of life is. A man may preach a strong lesson in a play which may exist for a day, but if he succeeds in presenting real life itself in such a manner as to carry with it a certain moral inspiration, the force of the message need never be lost, for a new interpretation to fit the spirit of the time can renew its vigor and power." John Galsworthy has undoubtedly...
