Criticism, Performance, and the Passions in the Eighteenth Century: The Art of Transition

Eighteenth-century theatre critics reserved their highest praise for the transitions of a play, recognising its most striking passages as moments of larger sequential transformation. Through a recovery of this perspective, scholars of theatre and literary culture gain renewed understanding of performance, the passions, and criticism in the 1700s.
