Excerpt from Shakespeare in Fact and in Criticism
And this not to be related by the graphic tongue of some actor, but Openly - in parcel at least performed. Now, what the world would like to know is, How was this sort of thing managed on the Shakespearean boards? We cannot lavish overmuch gratitude upon gentlemen who count syllables and twitter of stopped endings for us. But one who will so substantially contribute to the history of scenic art as to tell us something of this certainly would not miss the gratitude of his countrymen!

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into Shakespearean criticism, particularly the recent trend of esthetic criticism, which analyzes Shakespeare's works for biographical insights about the playwright. The author argues that this approach is flawed, as it relies on subjective interpretations of the plays and poems rather than on objective evidence. The book also examines the claims of those who believe that the sonnets are autobiographical, and argues that this is also unlikely, given the lack of concrete evidence to support such claims. Ultimately, the book makes a case for a more balanced approach to Shakespearean criticism, one that takes into account both the literary and historical contexts in which the works were written. By doing so, we gain a richer and more nuanced understanding of Shakespeare's genius and his enduring legacy.
