Book Description
Excerpt from Elizabethan Drama, 1558-1642, Vol. 1 of 2: A History of the Drama in England From the Accession of Queen Elizabeth to the Closing of the Theaters, to Which Is Prefixed a Resume of the Earlier Drama From Its Beginnings Once more, this book is not concerned with ab stract aesthetic considerations of the nature of drama, its kinds, its relations to other forms of art, its strue ture and technique, except in so far as these topics may be involved in the general theme itself. Nor will an attempt be made to trace to their sources those interesting points of foreign contact which are so alluring and so misleading when unsubmitted to the larger historical tests which trace the fuller tides and greater sweeps of literature and disregard the accidental eddies in its currents.
