dc.description.abstract | The lyrical strain in Shakespeare's early drama is "brought out "by Chambers in his statement that |"With Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream, it (Richard the Second) belongs to the period of a deliberate literary experiment. For the space of a tragedy, a comedy, and a history, Shakespeare essayed to write drama in the lyrical vein, with his singing robe a on, with an abundance of passionate and highly coloured speech, and with the aid of rhyme and other devices of lyrical utterance." |Chambers expresses the opinion that Richard the Second is unlike the history play, Henry the Sixth; A Midsummer Nights Dream is different from that of As You Like It; and Romeo and Juliet is quite dissimilar to that of Hamlet or Macbeth, in that Richard the Second, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Romeo and Juliet are treated of in light, airy, lyrical passages. | en_US |
