To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We still in- sensibly regard Shakspere as an imtrained miracle of genius, even when we are em- phasizing the significance of that best of all training, the training that comes of doing things in competition with one's fellows.
We still revert to Aristotle and his French disciples, even if we have never read them.
We never tire of reviving the idle contest between the two halves of our own tempera- ment, which we strangely personify as classicism and romanticism, much as if , in Hotspur's phrase..., we should each divide himself and go to buffets.
And perhaps the most imsightly of our critical heirlooms is the disposition — part classic, part romantic, and altogether hu- man — to take some leading personage in a tragedy as a walking formula of rudimen- tary ethics: as if there were no plot, no circumstances; as if, in short, the character were not a man among men, but an abstrac- Digitized by Google SHAKSPERE 35 tion declaiming in the wilderness, a chimaera bombinans in vacuo.
