About this book
Shakespeare as a Dramatic Artist is a book by Richard G. Moulton. The book is described as a popular illustration of the principles of scientific criticism. The preface says the writer had three objects in writing the book, and that the first concerns the general reader.
The text reports Pope pointing out that Shakespeare was dependent for his subsistence on pleasing the taste of tradesmen and mechanics. The text says Theobald opens his preface with the comparison of the Shakespearean Drama to a splendid pile of buildings. The writer says that, if we use the slight material afforded us for speculation on this point, it would appear that the original choice for evil has for both been made by Macbeth. A topic listing in the text names, among others, a theory of taste as condensed experience and a history of judicial criticism as a triumph of authors over critics.
