Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essay on Shakspere´s Henry V Every one who means to criticize a drama would do well, we think, to pay attention to a figure of the late R. Benedix. A drama, he says, is a sort of gothic dome; there is a ground chosen to build upon, a groundwork and basis, there are walls and pillars and, lastly, a roof. The criticizing visitor has to examine the ground, if it is strong enough to bear a great building, the groundwork, if it is of solid structure, the walls and pillars, if they have been raised properly, and, lastly, if the work is crowned by a roof corresponding with the whole. Applying the said figure to the play of Henry V. our task, we think, will be this: We are to try, firstly, if Shakspere has built his drama on good historical ground. Was there a Henry V and was he like the hero Shakspere has made him! Were the characters of those, acting with or against him, like those Shakspere has portrayed? secondly: Were the walls and pillars of the edifice raised in good mastership, that is to say;: Were the characters, given to him, developed in such a way, that every action of them is indispensable to the following, like an underlying stone, bearing and sustaining everything of the next that may want explanation?
