Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the captivating world of English drama during the Romantic period, exploring its evolution from the mid-18th century to the early 19th century. The author meticulously traces the decline of pseudo-classical influences and the rise of a renewed fascination with Elizabethan playwrights. The emergence of sentimental comedy and the impact of German drama, with its focus on intense emotions and psychological exploration, are examined in detail. The central theme revolves around the transformation of tragedy during this era. The author analyzes the shift from Gothic horror-driven plays to a more introspective and psychologically complex form of tragedy, exemplified by the works of Joanna Baillie and the emergence of the "closet drama." The influence of Shakespeare and the Elizabethan tradition on Romantic playwrights is a recurring motif, highlighting the enduring power of English dramatic heritage. Through insightful analysis of key playwrights and their works, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of the forces that shaped Romantic drama. It sheds light on the complex interplay between literary trends, social and political contexts, and the evolving tastes of audiences, ultimately revealing how Romantic drama reflected and responded to the spirit of its time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
