His comedy pleases by the thoughts and the language, and his tragedy for the greater part by incident and action. His tragedy seems to be skill, his comedy to be instinct.
316 ページ - That the mingled drama may convey all the instruction of tragedy or comedy cannot be denied, because it includes both in its...
233 ページ - Medea could in so short a time have transported him; he knows with certainty that he has not changed his place; and he knows that place cannot change itself: that what was a house cannot become a plain, that what was Thebes can never be Persepolis.
