Overview

Excerpt from Dramatists of to-Day: Rostand, Hauptmann, Sudermann, Pinero, Shaw, Phillips, Maeterlinck, Being an Informal Discussion of Their Significant Work The present edition of this book is an attempt to keep it as near its title as may be. There was immense temptation to make over the whole book. In our own language alone there are several new and interesting phases of the drama that one should say something about, if he is to be in touch with his time. But, on the other hand, the older men are still alive: even the last theatrical season in our country with Chantecler, The Blue Bird, The Thunderbolt reminds us that they are still leaders. So I have not tried to make a. New book, nor even to revise the ideas, opinions, estimates of the old book. I have tried to bring the book up to date by adding such comment and fact as seemed necessary after the passage of five years.
