Shakespeare Commentaries (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Excerpt from Shakespeare Commentaries

IT IS a disgrace to England, that even now, 258 years after Shak spere' s death, the study of him has been so narrow, and the criticism, however good, so devoted to the mere text and its illustration, and to studies of single plays, that no book by an Englishman exists which deals in any worthy manner with Shakspere as a whole, which tracks the rise and growth of his genius from the boyish romanticism or the Sharp youngmanishness of his early plays, to the magnificence, the splendoui, the divine intuition, which mark his ablest works. The profound and. Generous Commentaries of Gervinus - an honour to a German to have written, a pleasure to an Englishman to read - is still the only book known to me that comes near the true treatment and the dignity of its subject, 01 can be put into the hands of the student who Wants to know the mind of Shakspeie.'
