The greater plays in their literary
aspect, edited by scholars of liter-
ary as well as academic distinction,
issued in single volumes.

N this edition an attempt is made to present the greater plays of the dramatist in their literary aspect, and not merely as material for the study of philology or grammar. Criticism purely verbal and textual has been included to such an extent only as may serve to help the student in his appreciation of the essential poetry. Questions of date and literary history have been fully dealt with in the Introductions, but the larger space has been devoted to the interpretative rather than the matter-of-fact order of scholarship.

The aim is to set forth an adequate literary and artistic interpretation of Shakespeare, free from the metaphysical and moralizing perversion, the superfine intellectuality, and all the misconceptions of dramatic art and confusion of æsthetic standards that have come upon us from Germany, and have been fostered by the transcendental and latter-day critics.

Cloth. 40 cents a volume.
