SHAKESPEARE IN RUSSIA.
That Shakespeare, should be approved in Kussia, where six of his plays have been running at the same time,' is explained by Russian critical opinion of that well-known dramatist. "Shakespeare's artistic power," says the Cojnmunist Academy and Marx-Engels-Leuin Institute, "in due to his destructive criticism of capitalism . . . and to the remorseless way in which he, as a representative of the old order of feudalism, attacks thq venal and rapacious middle class." Which again goes to show (remarks the "Christian Science Monitor") the wonder of Shakespeare in that the possibility of saying sonicthing new about him seems inexhaustible.
