A CRITICAL STUDY

_UNIFORM WITH "PEOPLE AND QUESTIONS"_
DRAMATIC PORTRAITS
By P.P. HOWE
Throughout this book a particular point of view has been adhered to, from which the drama is looked upon as a separate art from literature, and from which especial attention is paid to the manner of its practice. Thus nearly all the plays of the dramatists pa.s.sed under review are to be studied in book form, but they are spoken of here, as far as possible, in terms of their actual presentation in the theatre.
The dramatists include Pinero, Henry Arthur Jones, Henry James, Oscar Wilde, Bernard Shaw, Barrie, Hubert Henry Davies, Granville Barker, Hankin, Galsworthy and Masefield. It is a book for all playgoers who have done their playgoing in the English theatre of the last twenty-five years.
The portraits which ill.u.s.trate it are from camera studies by Mr. E.O.
Hopp, reproduced by a new process which does full justice to his original prints.
