Description

Excerpt from The Elizabethan Playhouse: And Other Studies IN connection with the existing, actively pursued inquiry into the physical conditions and stage conventionalisms of the Elizabethan Playhouse, I lay claim with par donable pride to the mild honours of a pioneer. Ten years ago, when I first began to publish the result of my prolonged investigations on the subject, there were no scientific workers in the field. At home and abroad, in Germany, in America, there are many now. To those Who desire to see how notable has been the progress made in this department of research during the past decade I commend Professor Reynolds' critical retrospect, What we know of the Elizabethan Stage, as published last year in Modern Philology at Chicago. To myself the seriousness of this advance has been vividly brought home by the circumstance that, on examination, the first fruits of my labours in this field have proved too axiomatic to bear the test of reproduction. I refer here more particularly to a paper on Some Characteristics of the elizabethan-stuart Stage, contributed in 1903 to Englisclye Studien, which at leastjustified itself in inspiring and directing other workers. Vainglorious as this may sound, it is simply an echo of what has been publicly acknowledged. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
