Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Familiar Talks on Some of Shakspeare´s Comedies These Parlor Lectures were given in Baltimore, to a large and appreciative class of ladies. In examining great masses of Shakspearian criticism during their preparation, I was surprised to find how little of the same kind of work has been done. We have (besides Hudson and Dowden) Hazlitt´s characters, which are very brief; Coleridge´s inestimable notes, which too often are mere jottings; Maginn´s papers, which I find a little strained; Gervinus, who writes with Teutonic care, insight, and heaviness; Richard Grant White, whose most finished essay is on a play not included in this volume; Christopher North, whose sparklets of Shakspearian criticism are scattered up and down old volumes of Blackwood; Mrs. Jameson´s most excellent "Characteristics of Women;" Lady Martin´s recent letters on some of Shakspeare´s female characters; and a series of papers, still incomplete, in the English "Monthly Packet" (edited by Miss Yonge), called "Shakspeare Talks with Uncritical People," by Constance O´Brian.
