About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Bourgeois From Molière to Beaumarchais, the Study of a Dramatic Type: A Dissertation Presented to the Board of University Studies of the Johns Hopkins University in Conformity With the Requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, June, 1906

The chapters printed here form the introduction and con elusion of a Dissertation presented to the Board Of University Studies of the Johns Hopkins University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The entire Dissertation has been found too bulky to print at present, but it is hoped that the portions here presented will prove intelligible in themselves. The portions omitted con sist of a full analysis of each bourgeois character encountered in the plays examined, with ample quotation of speeches in illustra tion of points treated, and a summary of each author's treatment of the bourgeois as a dramatic type. The fact that all this illus trative material is omitted may explain, and, I hope, excuse in a way, whatever seems Obscure or overcondensed in these pages.
