Excerpt from The Select Dramatic Works of John Dryden
There not having been an issue of Dryden's Plays since 1821, when Sir Walter Scott brought out an edition of the poet's whole works in eighteen volumes, an apology for the present publication is scarcely necessary, except indeed, on the score of the limited character of the selection. Our intention was to give a considerable number of the Plays, but, on after consideration, the others were dropped from the list, as probably unsuitable to the tastes of the present time, thus confining selection to two - the two best in various respects. Indeed, as regards the comparative merits and purity of the various Plays, there seems to be but one opinion among Dryden's numerous biographers and critics - all appear to agree in giving the two in question the first place.
In judging of Drydon's dramatic writings, as compared with his other works, it might be well to bear in mind that neither the object for which they were composed - in great part a pecuniary one - nor the tastes of the period, were calculated to prove strikingly elevating or inspiring in their influences. In the course of two hundred years, society has made great advances in many respects, and probably in no section is this more marked than in that of the theatre and its relationships.
