Five Old Plays: Forming a Supplement to the Collections of Dodsley and Others: Forming A Supplement To The Collections Of Dodsley And Others (1833) - Softcover

This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work.

The Five Plays contained in this volume, are for the first time reprinted from very scarce or unique originals, and are designed to form a supplement toD odsley swell known collection. Whatever value that collection possesses may be claimed for this addition to it, because the intrinsic merit of the plays is equal to if not greater than that of any hitherto republished. An account of the writer is prefixed to each play, and this effort to encrease the stores of our much neglected stage, will, it is hoped, be deemed accejpM:able to theD ramatic A ntiquary, and to all who are interested in our early literature.
