Connon, F. Wallace
World Government - The Drama of the Ages
152 pages. Black and white photographic plates. "This book does not claim to have said anything new, but is rather a reviewing of an old story through an individual lens which may bring into a new perspective the leading characters and events of that story. It is a story that can never be exhausted, and is always unfolding; that fact, and the narrow, unsatisfactory method of disconnecting teaching, and spiritualising in general practice, are my excuses for attempting to give it as one continual history, 'The Drama of the Ages', whose pivotal centre is Christ Himself and His teaching." - from Preface. Above-average wear to blue boards. Infrequent high-lighting to contents. Sound reference copy. Book

Coquelin Was Born In Boulogne-Sur-Mer Pas-De-Calais. He Was Originally Intended To Follow His Father's Trade Of Baker He Was Once Called "Un Boulanger Manqué" - "A Failed Baker" - By A Hostile Critic But His Love Of Acting Led Him To The Conservatoire Where He Entered Régnier's Class In 1859. He Won The First Prize For Comedy Within A Year And Made His Début On 7 December 1860 At The Comédie-Française As The Comic Valet Gros-René In Molière's Le Dépit Amoureux But His First Great Success Was As Figaro In The Barber Of Seville In The Following Year. It Was An Honour For Coquelin To Be A Part Of The Comédie-Française At Such A Young Age. This Company Had Already Been In Existence For Around 150 Years. He Was Made Sociétaire In 1864. There Were 21 34 Shares And They Were Divided Among The Lead Actors Known As Sociétaires. The Sociétaires Co-Manage Choose Plays And Share Profits.

In Consequence Of A Dispute With The Authorities Over The Question Of His Right To Make Provincial Tours In France He Resigned In 1886. Three Years Later However The Breach Was Healed; And After A Successful Series Of Tours In Europe And The United States He Rejoined The Comédie-Française As Pensionnaire In 1890. During His Time Away From The Comédie He Wrote His Book Art And The Actor. It Was During This Period That He Took The Part Of Labussière In The Production Of Victorien Sardou's Thermidor Which Was Banned By The Government After Three Performances. In 1892 He Broke Definitively With The Comédie-Française And Toured For Some Time Through The Capitals Of Europe With A Company Of His Own; In New York For Instance He Performed At Abbey's Theatre In 1894 Playing The Lead In Tartuffe His Son Jean Played Orgon And Mascarille In Les Précieuses Ridicules.3 In 1895 He Joined The Renaissance Theatre In Paris And Played There Until He Became Director Of The Théâtre De La Porte Saint-Martin In 1897.

Corneille, Pierre (1606-1684).
THEATRE CHOISI. Novelle Edition, ornee de 4 portraits en pied colories.
443 p. + Four color lithographed plates by Geoffroy. Foxed. 12mo. 18.5 cm. All edges gold. Beautiful original crimson gold bindings. Morocco leather backs over leather-like cloth boards. The spines tooled in compartments with gold 'player's mask' faces. Corneille was a French dramatist, ranking with Racine as a master of French classical tragedy. Educated by Jesuits, he practiced law briefly in his native Rouen and moved to Paris after the favorable reception of his first play, Melite (1629), a comedy. His first tragedy, Medee (1635), was followed by Le Cid (1637). This masterpiece, based on a Spanish play about the Cid, took Paris by storm; "beautiful as the Cid" became a French proverb. However, Jean Chapelain composed a paper for the newly founded French Academy that attacked the play as plagiaristic and faulty in construction, and thereafter Corneille adhered to classical rules. Among the finest of his score of tragedies that followed are Horace (1640), Cinna (1640), and Polyeucte (1643). The comedy Le Menteur (1643) had great success. Corneille's tragedies exalt the will at the expense of the emotions; his tragic heroes and heroines display almost superhuman strength in subordinating passion to duty. At his best, Corneille was a master of the grand style, powerful and majestic. His last plays (not represented here) are marred by monotonous declamation. Corneille's old age was embittered by the rise of Racine, who replaced him in popular favor [Columbia Encyclopedia].SW3

Tragedie. Early ownership. From the Library of Edwin Wolf II. Thomas Corneille (1625-1709) was a French dramatist and scholar, born in Rouen nineteen years after his famous brother Pierre. After his brother's death, Thomas succeeded his vacant chair in the Academie Francaise. He then turned his attention to philology. In 1704 he lost his sight and was constituted a 'veteran,' a dignity which gave him the privileges of an academician, while exempting him from the duties. He did not allow his blindness to put a stop to his work, however, and in 1708 produced a large Dictionnaire universel geographique et historique in three volumes folio. This was his last major work. His Timocrate boasted of the longest run (80 nights) recorded of any play during the century. SCARCE. SAFE ADD 1

Cornford, Francis Macdonald
The Origin of Attic comedy
This book was originally published in 1934. Beginning with Aristotle's observation that from the earliest stage Attic Comedy had 'certain definite forms', F. M. Cornford shows that these forms are clearly observable in the plays of Aristophanes and that they derived from a ritual drama common to both tragedy and comedy. Edited with Foreword and additional notes by Theodore H. Gaster. Crisp, tight vintage copy - looks almost unread.Old bookstore stamp on ffep. else fine Book

CORNWALL, pseud.] [Barry
The Life of Edmund Kean. BRIGHT, CLEAN COPY IN CONTEMPORARY BINDING
2 vols., 8vo., First Edition, with engraved portrait frontispiece (mildly age-soiled), some very light and inoffensive age-staining to text, neat pencilled nineteenth-century inscription of half-title of second volume; attractively bound in contemporary half calf, coarse-grain cloth sides ruled in gilt, backs with five raised bands, second and third compartments lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments framed and tooled in gilt, gilt edges, marbled endpapers, a very good, bright, crisp copy in wholly unrestored period binding. The UK edition is much scarcer than its US counterpart published in the same year, particularly as two volumes as originally issued. Kean died in 1833.
