Excerpt from Love's Labour Lost We neither dare nor care to dispute the arithmetic of all this; and in our General Introduction we paid full tribute of respect to those minute investigators who in the last century, by verse-counting and similar tests, did so much toward: determining the chronological order of the Plays. If we follow their processes, however, without extreme wariness in accepting their conclusions, we shall find ourselves trapped in a double fallacy.' In the first place all this helpful arithmetic rests on the as sumption - demonstrably absurd - that each play was originally written in the form in which it has come down to us: and secondly it proceeds on an assumption that a poet grows by mathematical rule, whereas we all know that he does nothing of the kind. Shakespeare, as he developed, might - nay, certainly did - tend to discard rhyme for blank verse, 'closed' lines for 'run-on' lines, and so on. But a poet is not only not an india-rubber plant, to be counted upon to throw out a certain pro portion of leaves (or of 'strong-endings') next year. He is an artist, and therefore incalculable; a man, and there fore a doubtful master of warring members: he and his art together are pent in 'the body of this death, ' and break prison on no scheduled permit but by fits and starts, just how and when they can. The artist essays, hits or misses, retreats to try afresh. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Original Version of Love's Labour's Lost: With a Conjecture as to Love's Labour's Won The value of restoring what is, in a sense, a lost play of Shakespeare (though lost only in its own overcoat) is not alone that we may rightly consider his characteristics at the start, but that we may observe precisely how he revised his work at a later date. In this instance we must admit that the revision was hastily and carelessly done, and consisted almost wholly in engrafting upon his early comedy such new features as would be most likely to please the sentimental and pageant - loving queen; and this cannot be taken as typical of his method. But what Shakespeare did in any instance is of the greatest consequence. I have attempted in this essay to furnish a key to the original version of Love's Labour's Lost, so that anyone interested may mark the passages in his own working edition of the play. I have attempted to justify my conclusions in a general introduction, saving more detailed considerations for supplementary notes. In the latter will be found also such textual emendations as I care to suggest. I am indebted for friendly comments to my colleagues, Professor R. M. Alden and Professor W. D. Briggs.

Excerpt from Love's Labour's Lost: A Comedy in Five Acts The previous revivals were commenced with Twelfth Night and The Merry Wives of Windsor. Theinterest which such an event must necessarily create is of that kind which passes beyond merely dramatic circles, and engages the attention oflittera tears, and in a more general way of every observer of the progress of art in the United States. Love's Labour's Lost has never been acted in the City of New York, or, ifit has, there is at least no record extant. Of any such performance. A brief but unimportant revival took place, however, in 1858 at the Arch Street Theatre, Philadelphia. It is nearly thirty-five years ago since the play was acted in London, the last performance being at the Covent Garden Theatre, in September, 1839. Though the play is thus unfamiliar to the stage, it is one of the best known in the closet, and possesses an especial interest in the fact that it is one of the oldest in the language. Love's Labour's Lost is conceded to be the first play which Shakespeare wrote, the great dramatist being then thirty years of age. Mr. Malone is of Opinion that Shakespeare commenced to write for the stage in his twenty-seventh year, His first work, accord ing to his own statement. Was Venus and Adonis, which was not published, however, until 1593. Malone places the production of Love's Labour's Lost at 1594. But Coleridge thinks that it must have been planned much earlier no doubt before the dramatist left Stratford and went up to London. He thinks that it was a boyish production, which was afterward retouched and improved, and in sustainment of this view observes that the characters in the play are such as a country town and school-boy's observation might supply. In one of his essays the same writer observes: Yet, if this juvenile drama had been the only one extant of our Shakespeare, and we possessed the tradition only of his riper works, or accounts of them in some writers who had not even men tioned this play, how many of Shakespeare's characteristic features might we not still have discovered in 'love's Labour's Lost, ' though as on a portrait of him taken in his boyhood. In respect to the characters of the drama, however, Coleridge observes that they may not be the fruits of observation, but imper sonated out of Shakespeare's own multiformity, for, he says, the transcendent genius in its very earliest utterances produced marvels of outline or suggestion, as in riper years it produced wonders of finish and perfect form.

John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and 1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is now reissued. Each work is available both individually and as a set, and each contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main text, and substantial notes and glossary printed at the back. The edition, which began with The Tempest and ended with The Sonnets, put into practice the techniques and theories that had evolved under the 'New Bibliography'. Remarkably by today's standards, although it took the best part of half a century to produce, the New Shakespeare involved only a small band of editors besides Dover Wilson himself. As the volumes took shape, many of Dover Wilson's textual methods acquired general acceptance and became an established part of later editorial practice, for example in the Arden and New Cambridge Shakespeares.
