Hardcover. Condición: Good. Stephen Phillips was a successful English poet - dramatist who saw good success in his day. Concentrating on classic themes from mythology and the great stories of past literature (such as from Dante), his dramas are dignified and elegant. Phillips made some strong efforts to revitalize Elizabethan style with an infusion of classic Greek dramatic elements. "Ulysses" seems to be one such production. It's a good play, and all of the characteristics and problems inherent in the character of Ulysses are present. The drama was originally published in 1902. This is the 8th printing, issued in 1911. The book has an inked gift inscription (in two handsome hands - see picture provided) : Ida L. Butcher To Anna M. Beechwood. -- Anna M. Beechwood (1892 - 1972) was wife of George Beechwood, and the daughter of Charles M. Butcher and Sarah Jane Butcher (nee Morgan). Ida Butcher was Anna's aunt. TITLE : Ulysses.

2pp., 12mo. Fair, on aged grey paper, with slight chipping at one corner. The letter accompanies a copy of an unnamed play, which Phillips hopes will interest Greenwood. 'I will stand or fall by it. I have learnt so much from your criticism (more indeed than from any one) that I should hope that you might continue possibly that line of such sane and helpful criticism which I have learned to look for from "the onlooker".' He concludes by declaring that there is no one to whom he is sending the book 'with greater pleasure'. In a footnote he states that he would consider it 'a very real privilege' if they might meet: 'I leave it to you.' There is no record of any work named 'The Onlooker' by an author named Greenwood, but James Greenwood, did use such pseudonyms as 'One of the Crowd' and 'The Amateur Casual'.
