Excerpt from Montaigne and Shakspere For a good many years past the anatomic study of Shakspere, of which a revival seems now on foot, has been somewhat out of fashion, as compared with its vogue in the palmy days of the New Shakspere Society in England, and the years of the battle between the iconoclasts and the worshipers in Germany. When Mr. Fleay and Mr. Spedding were hard at work on the metrical tests, when Mr. Spedding was subtly undoing the chronological psychology of Dr. Furnivall, when the latter student was on his part undoing in quite another style some of the judgments of Mr. Swinburne, and when Mr. Halliwell-Phillipps was with natural wrath calling on Mr. Browning, as President of the Society, to keep Dr. Furnivall in order, we (then) younger onlookers felt that literary history was verily being made.
