Ten original essays on English drama from Tudor times onwards examines different aspects on the development of this art form.
'As we expect from Bradbrook, always a pleasantly readable scholar, these papers consistently convey rich, penetrating, informative, durable perspectives on Shakespeare and the English Renaissance. Strongly recommended for all English literature and drama collections in four-year educational institutions and in graduate schools.'

Originally published in 1941, this book provides a brief study of the life and work of Joseph Conrad ('Poland's English genius') through the lens of his writings. Bradbrook divides Conrad's stories by three main themes: the wonders of the deep, the hollow men and recollections in tranquillity, in order to show Conrad's literary development. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Conrad's writings.
These ten original essays on English drama from Tudor times onwards were first published in 1977. Each is written by a former member of the Cambridge English Faculty. Each author has an individual approach and makes a fresh contribution to the study of dramatic form seen in a changing historical setting. There are essays on genres, on individual playwrights and on social conditions affecting the development of the drama. Together, the essays make a valuable contribution to the study of drama.
