Excerpt from A Handbook of the Drama: Its Philosophy and Teaching; With a Chapter on the Law of Copyright in Its Relation to Dramatic Work HE remarkable progress which has, within the last half-century, been made in all branches of the drama is a subject which will well repay close and criti cal examination. There has never existed any depart ment of art so closely allied to Nature and her varying conditions of existence as that of the drama, in its connection with the actor's art, and with the analysis of the passions and emotions of the human soul. Know ledge concerning the development of this subject, to be gleaned at all, must be gleaned partly through the pages of dramatic literature, and partly through our personal contact with the theatre. And knowledge of this kind is distinctly valuable, because it embraces much of the hidden mechanism by which the mind is regulated and affected. The extensive metaphysical elaborations which have, from time to time, occupied the genius of speen lative enquiry, have been the means of placing before the student of psychology the intricate operations of the mind, as its workings have been reduced to a science.
