每日一练

Should we really care for the greatest actors of the past could we have them

before us? Should we findthem too different from our accent of thought,

offeeling, of speech, in a thousand minute particularswhich are of the essence

of all three? Dr. Doran'slong and interesting records of the triumphs ofGarrick,

and other less familiar, but in their dayhardly less astonishing, players, do

not relieve one of the doubt. Garrick himself, assometimes happens with people

who have been the subject of much anecdote and otherconversation, here as

elsewhere, bears no very distinct figure. One hardly sees the wood forthe trees.

On the other hand, the account of Betterton, "perhaps the greatest of

Englishactors," is delightfully fresh. That intimate friend of Dryden,

Tillatson, Pope, who executed acopy of the actor's portrait by Kneller which is

still extant, was worthy of their friendship; hiscareer brings out the best

elements in stage life. The stage in these volumes presents itselfindeed not

merely as a mirror of life, but as an illustration of the utmost intensity of

life, inthe fortunes and characters of the players. Ups and downs, generosity,

dark fates, the mostdelicate goodness, have nowhere been more prominent than in

the private existence of thosedevoted to the public mimicry of men and women.

Contact with the stage, almost throughoutits history, presents itself as a kind

of touchstone, to bring out the bizarrerie, the theatricaltricks and contrasts,

of the actual world.

apparentlyintends the word trees to be analogous to

A.features of Doran's language style

people like the author

B.their contemporaries would have understood famous actors

C.the acting of famous stage personalities would appeal to us today

D.Garrick was as great as he is portrayed
