First published in English in 1961, this reissue relates the problems of form and style to the development of dramatic speech in pre-Shakespearean tragedy. The work offers positive standards by which to assess the development of pre-Shakespearean drama and, by tracing certain characteristics in Elizabethan tragedy which were to have a bearing on Shakespeare’s dramatic technique, helps to illuminate the foundations on which Shakespeare built his dramatic oeuvre.

In 'Browning and the Dramatic Monologue', S. S. Curry provides a thoughtful analysis of Robert Browning's use of the dramatic monologue in his poetry, exploring how Browning uses this form to develop characters and plot. Curry points out that each monologue is delivered to a specific listener, who shapes and guides the protagonist's narrative. In the first part of the book, Curry delves into the history and elements of the dramatic monologue, while in the second part, he examines how to effectively render the monologue through oral performance. With insightful commentary and examples from Browning's works, this book is a valuable resource for scholars and lovers of poetry alike.

Provides the first systematic and comprehensive account of the conventions governing soliloquies in Western drama from ancient times to the twentieth century. Over the course of theatrical history, there have been several kinds of soliloquies. Shakespeare's soliloquies are not only the most interesting and the most famous, but also the most misunderstood, and several chapters examine them in detail. The present study is based on a painstaking analysis of the actual practices of dramatists from each age of theatrical history. This investigation has uncovered evidence that refutes long-standing commonplaces about soliloquies in general, about Shakespeare's soliloquies in particular, and especially about the to be, or not to be episode. 'Shakespeare and the history of Soliloquies' casts new lights on historical changes in the artistic representation of human beings and, because representations cannot be entirely disentangled from perception, on historical changes in the ways human beings have perceived theselves.
