Excerpt from Dramatic Criticism: Three Lectures Delivered at the Royal Institution, February 1903
It is not to be gainsaid that the word "criticism" has gradually acquired a certain connotation of contempt. Indeed, one is sometimes tempted to wish that "criticism" and "critic" could be expunged from the dictionary, so lamentably misused as they are. Every one who expresses opinions, however imbecile, in print calls himself a "critic." The greater the ignoramus, the greater the likelihood of his posing as a "critic." The title has become as vulgar as "Professor," which Matthew Arnold modestly declined to share with Professor Pepper. But vulgarity, as we know, is sometimes a very different thing from popularity. It is significant that the vocabulary of daily life has never adopted the word "critic" as a term of endearment.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a study of the often fraught relationship between playwright and critic, explored through a lively collection of historical accounts and literary analysis. The author surveys the origins of drama criticism from Aristotle onward, examines how and why the role of the critic has evolved over the centuries, and explores the different ways in which critics and audiences perceive the same theatrical experiences. The author also considers the different types of drama, from melodrama to high tragedy, and how the genre can influence the critical response. The book concludes by exploring the enduring significance of drama criticism, which, the author argues, remains a vital component of theatrical culture, both in shaping public perception of plays and in influencing the playwrights themselves.
