Plays, Acting, and Music: A Book of Theory (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Plays, Acting, and Music: A Book of TheoryWhen this book was first published it con tained a large amount of material which is now taken out of it; additions have been made, besides many corrections and changes; and the whole form of the book has been remodelled. It is now more what it ought to have been from the first; what I saw, from the moment of its publication, that it ought to have been: a book of theory. The rather formal announcement of my intentions which I made in my preface is reprinted here, because, at all events, the programme was carried out.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
