The Count of Narbonne: A Tragedy, in Five Acts

Neither "The Winter's Tale", nor "Henry VIII" by Shakspeare, were at that time performed at either of the theatres; and the town had no immediate comparison to draw between the conjugal incidents in "The Count of Narbonne," and those which occur in these two very superior dramas. The Cardinal Wolsey of Shakspeare, is, by Jephson, changed into a holy and virtuous priest; but his importance is, perhaps, somewhat diminished by a discovery, which was intended to heighten the interest of his character; but which is introduced in too sudden, and romantic a manner, to produce the desired consequence upon a well-judging auditor. One of the greatest faults, by which a dramatist can disappoint and fret his auditor, is also to be met with in this play.Infinite discourse is exchanged, numberless plans formed, and variety of passions agitated, concerning a person, who is never brought upon the stageSuch is the personal nonentity of Isabel, in this tragedy, and yet the fable could not proceed without her.Alphonso, so much talked of, yet never seen, is an allowable absentee, having departed [pg 4] to another world; and yet, whether such invisible personages be described as alive, or dead, that play is the most interesting, which makes mention of no one character, but those which are introduced to the sight of the audience. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
