Excerpt from Ten More Plays of ShakespeareThe scenery is less marked than it is in Twelfth Night or in As You Like It. It is of a palazzo and a garden, with pleached alleys, arbours, and an orchard, and the rest is placed in a church and the streets of Messina.Of late, it has been (like many other Shakespeare plays) made into a most spectacular affair, and this is a great mistake. When dances and elaborate pageantry and fanciful additions are crowded into it, the spectacle devours the drama, the soul of Shakespeare seems to ¿y out of the words, the inter-play of the characters tends to be swamped, their thought and passion to be overlaid, and we say to ourselves How much better it were could I but read this play at home in a pleasant twilight.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
