DRAMATIC ESSAYS.

EDITED BY

WILLIAM ARCHER AND ROBERT W. LOWE.

_Three Volumes_, _Crown_ 8_vo_, _Cloth_, _Price_ 3/6 _each_.

Dramatic Criticism, as we now understand it--the systematic appraisement from day to day and week to week of contemporary plays and acting--began in England about the beginning of the present century. Until very near the end of the eighteenth century, "the critics" gave direct utterance to their judgments in the theatre itself, or in the coffee-houses, only occasionally straying into print in letters to the news-sheets, or in lampoons or panegyrics in prose or verse, published in pamphlet form. Modern criticism began with modern journalism; but some of its earliest utterances were of far more than ephemeral value. During the earlier half of the present century several of the leading essayists of the day--men of the first literary eminence--concerned themselves largely with the theatre. Under the title of

"DRAMATIC ESSAYS"

will be issued, in three volumes, such of their theatrical criticisms as seem to be of abiding interest.

_THE FIRST SERIES_ will contain selections from the criticisms of LEIGH HUNT, both those published in 1807 (long out of print), and the admirable articles contributed more than twenty years later to _The Tatler_, and never republished.

_THE SECOND SERIES_ will contain selections from the criticisms of WILLIAM HAZLITT. Hazlitt's Essays on Kean and his contemporaries have long been inaccessible, save to collectors.

_THE THIRD SERIES_ will contain hitherto uncollected criticisms by JOHN FORSTER, GEORGE HENRY LEWES, and others, with selections from the writings of WILLIAM ROBSON (The Old Playgoer).

The Essays will be concisely but adequately annotated, and each volume will contain an Introduction by WILLIAM ARCHER, and an Engraved Portrait Frontispiece.

ESTHER WATERS: A Novel.

BY GEORGE MOORE.

"Strong, vivid, sober, yet undaunted in its realism, full to the brim of observation of life and character, _Esther Waters_ is not only immeasurably superior to anything the author has ever written before, but it is one of the most remarkable works that has appeared in print this year, and one which does credit not only to the author, but the country in which it has been written."--_The World._

"As we live the book through again in memory, we feel more and more confident that Mr. Moore has once for all vindicated his position among the half-dozen living novelists of whom the historian of English literature will have to take account."--_Daily Chronicle._

"It may be as well to set down, beyond possibility of misapprehension, my belief that in _Esther Waters_ we have the most artistic, the most complete, and the most inevitable work of fiction that has been written in England for at least two years."--A. T. Q. C. in _The Speaker_.

"Hardly since the time of Defoe have the habits and manners of the 'masses' been delineated as they are delineated here.... _Esther Waters_ is the best story that he (Mr. Moore) has written, and one on which he may be heartily congratulated."--_Globe._

"Matthew Arnold, reviewing one of Tolstoï's novels, remarked that the Russian novelist seemed to write because the thing happened so, and for no other reason. That is precisely the merit of Mr. Moore's book.... It seems inevitable."--_Westminster Gazette._

economic science."--_Scotsman._

and nice in style."--_Daily News._

LIFE OF GEORGE ELIOT. By OSCAR BROWNING.
"A book of the character of Mr. Browning's, to stand midway between
the bulky work of Mr. Cross and the very slight sketch of Miss
Blind, was much to be desired, and Mr. Browning has done his work
with vivacity, and not without skill."--_Manchester Guardian._

LIFE OF JANE AUSTEN. By GOLDWIN SMITH.
"Mr. Goldwin Smith has added another to the not inconsiderable roll
of eminent men who have found their delight in Miss Austen.... His

most readable in the excellent 'Great Writers' series."--_Scottish
Leader._

LIFE OF HAWTHORNE. By MONCURE CONWAY.
"It is a delightful _causerie_--pleasant, genial talk about a most
interesting man. Easy and conversational as the tone is throughout,
no important fact is omitted, no valueless fact is recalled; and
it is entirely exempt from platitude and conventionality."--_The
Speaker._

LIFE OF SCHOPENHAUER. By PROFESSOR WALLACE.
"We can speak very highly of this little book of Mr. Wallace's. It
is, perhaps, excessively lenient in dealing with the man, and it
cannot be said to be at all ferociously critical in dealing with
the philosophy."--_Saturday Review._

"To say that Mr. Lloyd Sanders, in this little volume, has produced
the best existing memoir of Sheridan, is really to award much
fainter praise than the work deserves."--_Manchester Examiner._

LIFE OF THACKERAY. By HERMAN MERIVALE and F. T. MARZIALS.
"The monograph just published is well worth reading, ... and the

IBSEN'S PROSE DRAMAS.

EDITED BY WILLIAM ARCHER.

Complete in Five Vols. Crown 8vo, Cloth, Price 3/6 each.

Set of Five Vols., in Case, 17/6; in Half Morocco, in Case, 32/6.

_"We seem at last to be shown men and women as they are; and at first it is more than we can endure. ... All Ibsen's characters speak and act as if they were hypnotised, and under their creator's imperious demand to reveal themselves. There never was such a mirror held up to nature before: it is too terrible.... Yet we must return to Ibsen, with his remorseless surgery, his remorseless electric-light, until we, too, have grown strong and learned to face the naked--if necessary, the flayed and bleeding--reality."_--SPEAKER (London).

VOL. I. "A DOLL'S HOUSE," "THE LEAGUE OF YOUTH," and "THE PILLARS
OF SOCIETY." With Portrait of the Author, and Biographical
Introduction by WILLIAM ARCHER.

VOL. II. "GHOSTS," "AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE," and "THE WILD DUCK."
With an Introductory Note.

VOL. III. "LADY INGER OF ÖSTRÅT," "THE VIKINGS AT HELGELAND," "THE
PRETENDERS." With an Introductory Note and Portrait of Ibsen.

VOL. IV. "EMPEROR AND GALILEAN." With an Introductory Note by
WILLIAM ARCHER.

VOL. V. "ROSMERSHOLM," "THE LADY FROM THE SEA," "HEDDA GABLER."
Translated by WILLIAM ARCHER. With an Introductory Note.

The sequence of the plays _in each volume_ is chronological; the complete set of volumes comprising the dramas thus presents them in chronological order.

"The art of prose translation does not perhaps enjoy a very high literary status in England, but we have no hesitation in numbering the present version of Ibsen, so far as it has gone (Vols. I. and II.), among the very best achievements, in that kind, of our generation."--_Academy._

"We have seldom, if ever, met with a translation so absolutely idiomatic."--_Glasgow Herald._

II. ELECTRICITY IN MODERN LIFE. By G. W. DE TUNZELMANN. With 88 Illustrations.

"A clearly-written and connected sketch of what is known about electricity and magnetism, the more prominent modern applications, and the principles on which they are based."--_Saturday Review._

III. THE ORIGIN OF THE ARYANS. By DR. ISAAC TAYLOR. Illustrated. Second Edition.

"Canon Taylor is probably the most encyclopædic all-round scholar now living. His new volume on the Origin of the Aryans is a first-rate example of the excellent account to which he can turn his exceptionally wide and varied information.... Masterly and exhaustive."--_Pall Mall Gazette._

IV. PHYSIOGNOMY AND EXPRESSION. By P. MANTEGAZZA. Illustrated.

"Professor Mantegazza is a writer full of life and spirit, and the natural attractiveness of his subject is not destroyed by his scientific handling of it."--_Literary World_ (Boston).

V. EVOLUTION AND DISEASE. By J. B. SUTTON, F.R.C.S. With 135 Illustrations.

"The book is as interesting as a novel, without sacrifice of accuracy or system, and is calculated to give an appreciation of the fundamentals of pathology to the lay reader, while forming a useful collection of illustrations of disease for medical reference."--_Journal of Mental Science._

VI. THE VILLAGE COMMUNITY. By G. L. GOMME. Illustrated.

"The fruit of some years of investigation on a subject which has of late attracted much attention, and is of much importance, inasmuch as it lies at the basis of our society."--_Antiquary._

VII. THE CRIMINAL. By HAVELOCK ELLIS. Illustrated.

"An ably written, an instructive, and a most entertaining book."--_Law Quarterly Review._

VIII. SANITY AND INSANITY. By DR. CHARLES MERCIER. Illustrated.

"An excellent summary of the present state of knowledge of the subject."--_Lancet._

XV. EDUCATION AND HEREDITY. By J. M. GUYAU.

It is doubtful whether among all the ardent evolutionists who have had their say on the moral and the educational question any one has carried forward the new doctrine so boldly to its extreme logical consequence."--Professor SULLY in _Mind_.

XVI. THE MAN OF GENIUS. By Professor LOMBROSO. Illustrated.
