Dramatic Studies (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162660479)

Dramatic Studies by Augusta Webster is a collection of literary essays that explore the themes and techniques of various plays from the Victorian era. The book offers a critical analysis of works by prominent playwrights such as William Shakespeare, John Milton, and Christopher Marlowe, as well as lesser-known writers like Joanna Baillie and Thomas Lovell Beddoes. Webster's writing is insightful and thought-provoking, delving into the complexities of character, plot, and language that make these plays enduring works of art. Along the way, she also examines the social and cultural context in which these plays were written, shedding light on the Victorian era's attitudes towards gender, morality, and power. Overall, Dramatic Studies is a fascinating and enlightening read for anyone interested in the history of drama and the literary traditions of the Victorian era.MY wedding day!
