Excerpt from Types of Tragic Drama The following pages make no pretension to completeness. They are, in fact, a reproduction, more or less faithful, of a course of lectures delivered to a general audience in this University during the winter of 1906. Each lecture was written out within a week after delivery; and the result, I believe, commonly represents the substance of What was then said. Some of the lectures, however, have been expanded, and a section on the dramas of Victor Hugo has been added. I have made no attempt to alter the lecture form, nor to remove the roughnesses and unshaded statements which are almost inseparable from spoken utterance. In order to get rid of these defects, the whole thing must have been recast from top to bottom; and it is probable that more would have been lost than gained in the process.

Excerpt from Art of the Drama This book is not a history of the drama. Nor is it a manual for the multitudes who aspire to write plays and sell them. It is a tool for the use of those who wish to deepen their understanding and enhance their enjoyment of plays witnessed in the theater or read in the study. As a textbook, it may prove useful in the study of the history of the drama or of the drama as a literary type, or in such a course as the Introduction to the Study of Drama as given at the University of Chicago. The book is divided into three parts, each of which emphasizes a particular aspect of the drama. Part I is mainly devoted to the historical aspect of the drama, the spirit of the age, the nature of the theater and audience in each of the major periods in dramatic his tory. It also contains a general discussion of the major forms or types of drama - tragedy, comedy, melodrama, and farce - and a more detailed consideration of the types of drama and comedy characteristic of each period. Part II considers the major modes of drama - classicism, romanticism, realism, sentimentalism, symbol ism, and expressionism. Part III concerns the major problems of dramatic technique and the characteristic solutions of those prob lems in the various types and modes and periods of drama. There is no question that it would have been more logical to con sider first the technical, second the aesthetic, and third the historical approach to the study of drama, and students of a logical turn of mind will have no difficulty in using the text in that order. But we have come to feel that it will, in general, be preferable for the student to master the facts in Part I before he ventures upon the more theoretical considerations of Parts II and III.

Excerpt from The English Heroic Play: A Critical Description of the Rhymed Tragedy of the Restoration This essay was submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Columbia University. A study of the English tragic drama of the latter half of the seventeenth century falls naturally into three parts first, a critical survey of the plays with the object of determining the type second, an inquiry into foreign origins and parallels; third, a history of the type in Eng land, the occasion for its introduction, and the causes and stages of its decline.

Excerpt from The Tragedies The place of the tragedies of Seneca in literature is unique. They stand as the sole surviving representatives, barring a few fragments, of an extensive Roman product in the tragic drama. They therefore serve as the only connecting link between ancient and modern tragedy. They are, moreover, modeled more or less closely after the tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides; and the Greek and Roman product in literature along parallel lines cannot be better studied than by a comparison of these Senecan plays with their Greek prototypes - a comparison which is not possible in comedy, since, unfortunately, the Greek originals of Plautus and Terence have not come down to us.

Excerpt from Tragic Dramas A long apology for a short work may be liable to just censure, as annexing to a trifle an undue importance. Various motives, nevertheless, having combined to induce the Writer of the following pages to bring them before the Public, she is desirous, by stating a few of them, to obviate as much as possible, the imputation of temerity, to which the publication of them may subject her: more especially since, wholly unknown herself in the world of literature, she can adduce the name, only, of her family, to attract attention, and stimulate curiosity, unaccompanied by any pretensions to' the abilities requisite to fix the one, or gratify the other.

Excerpt from The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: According to the First Folio (Spelling Modernised); With Further Remarks on the Emphasis-Capitals of Shakspere Of editing Shakspere's works, and writing books on them and him, there is no end, and with such a popular subject many have to do whom the Gods have not made Poetical, and who, therefore, do not know what Poetical is. We have laborious contributors in every branch connected with him and his writings, but, of course, the first thing, which has led to all the interest, is his meaning, that is the Heart of heart, and on which depends the accurate reading or reciting of his language, and we claim for these emphasis-capitals, that in this, they are the confidential servants or body-guard. Adherents to our opinion increase in number more rapidly than could have been anticipated, for there are so many grave interests bound up with Modern Editions which shew the shorn Text, that any published favourable words of an Edition restoring these abolished Capitals, and upon the ground of their being indispensable, cannot be other than few and far between. With a large number of persons, to admit that there is anything whatever in them, making them worthy of restoration, would be to lift a stone to break their own heads, and, accordingly, there is either silence, orutterances of the when I ope my lips, let no dog bark character, to force the emphasis-capitals to be regarded as merely types of a different shape, signifying nothing emanating from the Printers, and not thoughtfully selected, and carefully set down in his Manuscript, by Shakspere himself. One of the reviewers has said, These Capitals were simply inserted by the printers in the fashion of the time when no two printing offices agreed in the matter, or even took the trouble to be consistent with themselves, a statement with which we think no earnest and impartial student of the First Folio, capable of judging.

Excerpt from Tragic Dramas From History, Vol. 1: With Legendary and Other Poems This Drama formed originally part of another, that which follows it in the present volume, the Tragedy of Wallace. Of that Tragedy it constituted the first or opening act. But as it extended the play to an inconvenient length, and as besides it possesses an independent unity of its own, while the event to which it relates has no direct bearing on the catastrophe of the tragedy of which it formed a part, it has been judged advisable to detach it from its original connexion altogether, and to present it as a separate Drama of Two Acts.
