HOW TO STUDY SHAKESPEARE Let us suppose that one is approaching Shakespeare for the first time. If he feels himself at a loss to know what to do be- yond reading each play through, it is be- cause he does not know what to look for. For that is what study is. It is a looking for something and an endeavor to ascer- tain when one has found it. In arithmetic the valley beyond the shadows, but after him came Merton C.

Partake Lhakespeare's delight in life, and in the play of life upon life, if you would derive impulse and instruction from the vast spectacle of man, if you would find a village rife with momentous mystery, and make the circle of your ac- quaintance a theater replete with the cu- rious and the wonderful. Begin this study in any play of Shakespeare. Count up its distinct characters: note their indi- vidual traits; see to what types they sev- | erally belong and to what classes of so- cety: observe how they behave in dif- ferent situations and how they react one upon another; and discover how far they know or that you have read about. When you have done this with half a dozen the range of interests, the closeness of observation and the quickness and versa- tility of sympathy of the man who could jmagine and create this world of human belngs. You will thus have begun to study Shakespeare, and perhaps to find a new meaning in the world about you. 2. Notwithstandipg Shakespeare’s ab- sorption in the individual soul, notwith- standing his sympathetic interpretation of the beggar, the serving man, the thief, the drunkard, or the monster lower than man—if any monster can be lower than degraded man—yet he is never at a loss to exhibit a scale of values for his per- sonages. They are not equal in spiritual rank, and he never pretends they are. We teel with Caliban, as more righteous be- ing than ourselves would feel with In- dians and other barbarians, when he says: When thou camest first Thou strokest me and made much of me; wouldst give me Water with berries in't, and teach me how To name the bigger light, and how the less, That burn by day and night, and then I loved thee, And showed thee all the qualities o' the isle FRANK B.

IV.,” | V. v., 51-74). 3. Shakespeare has the greatest respect for the civic virtues, for those which hold together the framework of society. It fol- |lows that he brands with his abhorrence | all treachery, disloyalty and ingratitude, all ruthless and insolent tyranny, and all | deliberate failure to co-operate in the ad- | icement of the common weal. Almost every one of the more serious plays and even some of the comedies, will furnish instances in proof. In *“King Lear” he stigma filial ingratitude; in *“Mac; | icide and oppression; in *“The treason; and these are but specimens. Now and again the whole tempest of his eloquence is poured out in a flood on the unsocial vices, on lawless- , anarchy and riot. While it is thus true that Shake- re has for his characters a scale of s and recognizes a pantheon of vir- . it must be said, on the other hand, that there is an excellence for which he has but ant and conventional appre- | ciation. 1 refer to the virtue which has primary reference to God, as those al- ready mentioned have to man or the state. Though he can at times manifest tender- ness and reverence in his allusions to icred things (as e. g.. *“1 Hen. 1V (RESE: 5 “Hamlet,” I,, ., 158-154; Well,” IL, i.. 139-144). yet for reverence, for worship. for holiness of life, he in general has but slight regard. The ami- able friar in “Romeo and Juliet” by no means inspires unqualified reverence; the ambitious Gloucester, not yet become | King Richard IIL. is willingly supported in his young hypocrisy by two bishops, and the saintly seeming Angelo in *‘Meas- use for Measure has but stolen the livery of the court of heaven to serve the devil in. Shdkespeare came between the earlier ages of faith, with thelr exaltation of re- ligion, and the puritanism of the seven- | teenth century. He finds the Middle Ages picturesque and despises the puritans; he himself in a child of the Renaissance, and his kingdom is a kingdom of this world. 6. While Shakespeare’s prime interest is In humanity, he yet has an open eye for the terror, the majesty and the beauty of the physical universe, and for the aspect of all things visible. Take but two |illustrations—the one of the sun (‘“Richard il[v,” 1L, ii., 41-2, when From under the terrestial ball He fires the proud tops of the eastern pines; the other of the winds (*2 Hen. IV.,” IIL, i, 22-4): | Who take the ruffian billows by the tops, | Curling their monstrous heads and hanging them With deafening clamor in the slippery clouds; or, if you wish another, add the picture of a navy afloat (“Henry V. 111, prol. 7-16). But in any case note how he per- | sonifies—how he makes nature alive with man. 6. Shakespeare has definite views con- cerning poetry, its nature and processes. Thus he proclaims the office of poetry to soften and refine (“Two Gentlemen of Veron: IIL., i, 72 f2.): Much is the force of heaven-bred poesy, B For Orpheus’ lute was strung with poets’ sinews ‘Whose golden touch could soften steel and stones, Make tigers tame and huge leviathans Forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands. Again, he tells us what is the poet's master faculty (“Midsummer Night's Dream,” V., 1., 12-10): He affirms a deep and hard truth (“As You Like It,” IIL, iii.,, 19): “The truest poetry s the most feigning.” He per- celves that art may surpass nature (“Venus and Adonis,” 289 ff.): Look when a painter would surpass the life, In lUmning out a well-proportioned steed, His art with nature’s workmanship at strife, As if the dead the living should exceed; o did this horse excel a common one In shape, in courage, color, pace and bone. And in the perplexed question concerning the relative superiority of art and nature he gives an illuminative decision (“Win- ter’s Tale,” IV., iv., 89 f1.): Made better by no means, But nature makes that mean; so over that art Which you say adds to nature is an art That nature makes. There s an art Which does mend nature, change it rather, but The art itself is nature. Finally, when he speaks of *‘the elegancy, facility and golden cadence of poesy,” he has at once named the trait by which the unlettered most readily recognize it, and the quantity of which the greatest mas- ters are the quickest to appreciate the charm. Shakespeare studied nature, but he labored at an art; and the measure of his success in touching the hearts of men is the perfection which his art attained. So we may, if we will begin by looking in Shakespearo for these six things. We may see how he loves, and studies, and reveals man in brutes—the human soul in | a human body—in a word which thwarts, perplexes, amuses or Inspires him, and amid other human beings from whom he | is strikingly dissimilar, and with whom he is essentialy akin. Then we may ob- serve how Shakespeare never persistently and ultimately misleads us, but always‘ gives us ample materials for deciding upon the true moral rank of each of his | important characters. We may perceive how he is interested to uphold the moral order of the world, as revealed in social and political {nstitutions, and how he lashes those who are guilty of any at- tempt to subvert this moral order, while he bestows honors with a lavish hand upon those who are concerned in main- taining it. We shall then discover, on closer inspection, that the dramatist has but slight sympathy with other worldli- ness, with the spirit that, regarding man as a stranger and pilgrim on the earth, deliberately sets its affection on things above. Next, we may follow his pencil as, with vigorous or tender touches, it paints for us the appearance and effects of objects in the world of sense, rarely giving us an object alone, but associating them in groups, or uniting them by recip- rocal action and influence, as he does with his human beings. When we have begun all this, we may at length study Shakespeare’s views concerning the won- derful art by which he was enabled to perform these marvels, and investigate the means by which they were actually brought to pass.
