Shakespeare's Century of Praise is a comprehensive collection of materials that chronicles the history of opinions on William Shakespeare and his literary works. Written by Clement Mansfield Ingleby, a renowned Shakespearean scholar, the book provides a detailed account of how Shakespeare's reputation evolved over the course of the 17th century.The book is divided into three parts. The first part explores the early reception of Shakespeare's works, including the publication of his plays and the opinions of his contemporaries. The second part delves into the 17th century, examining the ways in which Shakespeare's plays were adapted, performed, and interpreted during this time. The third and final part of the book focuses on the critics and scholars who studied Shakespeare during the 17th century, including their theories and interpretations of his works.Throughout the book, Ingleby draws on a wide range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and other documents, to provide a rich and nuanced account of Shakespeare's legacy. He also includes a detailed bibliography of works cited, making this book an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of Shakespearean criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
