Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Theatrical Times of Charles Kean, Vol. 1 of 2: Including a Summary of the English Stage for the Last Fifty Years, and a Detailed Account of the Management of the Princess´s Theatre, From 1850 to 1859 Many reasons and suggestions not necessary to enumerate here, have induced me to offer these volumes, which have been long thought of, to the consideration of the public. Years of uninterrupted private friendship, and professional association of the most intimate nature with the leading personage of the work, have afforded me facilities and information which no one else possesses to the same extent. With these advantages and materials, I shall endeavour to add a faithful and, as I trust, a profitable contribution to the dramatic records of our country. It is an easier, as well as a less delicate task, to write a memoir of the dead than of the living. Facts may be stated and opinions delivered with more unreserved confidence, and diminished danger of offence or controversy, when they relate to one whose transitory probation has been completed, whose earthly career is finally closed, and to whom may be applied the touching elegy of Shakespeare: - "Fear no more the heat of the sun, Nor the furious winter´s rages; Thou, thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone and ta´en thy wages."
