Excerpt from French Dramatists of the 19th Century It is not yet sixty years since the Romanticists and the Classicists first met in battle-array; and it is but little more than fifty years since Hernani sounded his trumpet, and the hollow walls of Classicism fell with a final crash. This half-century is a period of no slight importance in the history of the drama: it is one of the two epochs when the plays of France have been conspicuously and incomparably superior to the plays of any other country; the earlier epoch was when the French stage saw in rapid succession the newest works of Corneille, of Molière, and of Racine. Although, with our ownership of Shakspere constantly in mind, we may not be willing to allow that the French have reached the highest pinnacle of the drama, we can see clearly enough that it is in the drama that they have mounted highest.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ...the first-fruits of this new philosophy, the preacher fortunately has not yet overmastered the playwright. The piece is a marvel of polemic literature, a model in the art of teaching by example. Mr. John Morley instances it as one of the very few modern plays which Diderot would recognize as belonging to the genre strieux, which began with his own ' Pere de Famille.' It treats an important subject honestly and with intellectual seriousness: there is none of the petty begging of the question which disfigures two other works on the same subject, --the 'Fernande' of M. Victorien Sardou, and the ' New Magdalen' of Mr. Wilkie Collins; both clever men, lacking, however, in the courage and the candor needed to face the problem fairly. There is a fourth work of fiction, published not long after M. Dumas's, which approaches the subject with the same appreciation of its demands and its difficulties. This is a novel, ' Hedged In, ' by Miss Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, as representatively New England as the ' Idees de Madame Aubray' is French. It is of course a mere paradox to say that M. Dumas, since his regeneration, appears to me as a typical New-Englander; but he has something of the New-England spirit, and he stands at times in the New-England attitude. He recalls, in a way, both Nathaniel Hawthorne and Oliver Wendell Holmes. His theology is in essence Unitarian. I have before made mention of his very New-England knack of biblical quotation; and, as his recent volume on divorce shows, he is as prone to search the Scriptures for a text wherewith to smite his adversary, as any of those chips of Plymouth Rock who "take to the ministry mostly." Without pushing the analogy too far, we can see it stand out plainly when we set the ' Idees de Madame Aubray'...

Excerpt from The Contemporary Drama of France This volume Offers a survey and an interpretation of the French drama for three decades, fromothe opening of the theatre-libre Of Antoine to the conclusion Of the World War. It attempts the classification, analysis, and criti cism of a thousand plays by two hundred and thirty authors. Among these are included a few Belgians whose pieces, written in French, have been as familiar to Paris as to Brussels. Although the productions of the period be less striking than those of the Romantic era, and less likely than those of the Classic to endure, they are more numerous and more vitally interesting to the generation whose failures, foibles, and aspirations they depict.
