Representative Plays By American Dramatists 1856 to 1917 is a comprehensive collection of plays written by some of the most prominent American playwrights of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Edited by Montrose J. Moses, the book features works by authors such as Augustin Daly, David Belasco, and Eugene O'Neill, among others.The plays included in this volume represent a wide range of styles and themes, from the romantic melodramas of the 19th century to the more experimental and socially conscious works of the early 20th century. Some of the most notable plays in the collection include The Octoroon by Dion Boucicault, The Second Mrs. Tanqueray by Arthur Wing Pinero, and The Emperor Jones by Eugene O'Neill.In addition to the plays themselves, Representative Plays By American Dramatists 1856 to 1917 also includes introductions and critical essays by Moses, providing context and analysis for each work. This makes the book an invaluable resource for students and scholars of American theater history, as well as anyone interested in the development of drama in the United States during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
