THE WORKS OF "Q."
A COLLECTED EDITION. The -works of Sir Arthur Qmlier-Coadi, acre generally and more intimately known as *' Q." are being published in an attractive pocket edition by the Cambridge University Press. The latest volume is Shakespeare's Workmanship," which consists of a series of lectures edited for the reading public. They seek to discover, to quote the author's own explanation, in some of his plays just what Shakespeare was doing as a playwright. " For it is no disparagement to the erudition and scholarship that have so piously been heaped about Shakespeare to say that we shall sometimes find it salutary to disengage our minds from it all and recollect that the poet was a playwright." Those who are familiar with ii s " individual style and bis power of imparting freshness and piquancy to well-worn themes, no less than those who come newly to the study of bis work, will be grateful to the Cambridge Press for the publication, oI this handy little edition.
