+
+INTRODUCTION
+
+
+The present volume of "Representative Plays by American Dramatists"
+includes many hitherto unpublished manuscripts. These are for the first
+time made available in authoritative form to the student of the American
+theatre. The Editor has tried consistently to adhere to his original
+basis of selection: to offer only those texts not generally in
+circulation and not used elsewhere in other anthologies. Exactions of
+copyright have sometimes compelled him to depart from this rule. He has
+been somewhat embarrassed, editorially, by the ungenerous haste with
+which a few others have followed closely in his path, even to the point
+of reproducing plays which were known to be scheduled for this
+collection. For that reason there have been omitted Mr. William
+Gillette's "Secret Service," available to readers in so many forms, and
+Mr. Percy Mackaye's "The Scarecrow." No anthology of the present
+historical scope, however, can disregard George Henry Boker's "Francesca
+da Rimini" or Bronson Howard's "Shenandoah." In the instance of Mr.
+Langdon Mitchell's "The New York Idea," it is possible to supersede all
+previous issues of this refreshing comedy by offering a text which, as
+to stage directions, has been completely revised by the author. Mr.
+Mitchell wishes to have this regarded as the correct version, and has
+himself prepared the "copy" of same. Because of the easy accessibility
+of Dion Boucicault's "The Octoroon; or, Life in Louisiana," it was
+thought best to omit this Irish-American playwright, whose jovial
+prolixity enriched the American stage of the '60's and '70's. His
+"London Assurance" is included in the present Editor's collection of
+"Representative British Dramas: Victorian and Modern."
+
+Of more historical significance than Joseph Jefferson's final version of
+"Rip Van Winkle," are the two texts upon which Boucicault and Jefferson
+based their play. It has been possible to offer the reader a comparative
+arrangement of the John Kerr and Charles Burke dramatizations.
+
+In the choice of Steele Mackaye's "Paul Kauvar; or, Anarchy" a period is
+illustrated which might be described as transitional. Executors of the
+Augustin Daly estate are not ready to allow any of Daly's original plays
+or adaptations to be published. The consequence is "Paul Kauvar" must
+stand representative of the eighteen-eighty fervour of Lester Wallack,
+A.M. Palmer, and Daly, who were in the Mackaye tradition.
+
+Oliver Bunce's "Love in '76" has been selected for the same reason that
+one might select Clyde Fitch's Revolutionary or Civil War
+pieces--because of its bloodless character; because it is one of the
+rare parlour comedies of the period.
+
+Of the new pieces, Fitch's "The Moth and the Flame" has remained
+unpublished until now. It exemplifies many of his most sprightly
+observational qualities. "The Truth" and "The Girl with the Green Eyes"
+are more mature, but are no less Fitchean than this. Mr. David Belasco's
+"The Return of Peter Grimm" is as effective in the reading as it was on
+the stage under his triumphant management. Mr. Eugene Walter's "The
+Easiest Way," at the last moment, was released from publication in the
+_Drama League Series of Plays_; it still stands as America's most
+cruelly realistic treatment of certain city conditions. In the choice of
+Mr. Augustus Thomas's "In Mizzoura"--"The Witching Hour" having so often
+been used in dramatic collections--the Editor believes he has
+represented this playwright at a time when his dramas were most racy and
+native.
+
+This third volume, therefore, brings examples of the present American
+stagecraft to date. Had his policy of selection not been exclusive, but
+rather inclusive of plays easily accessible to the student, the Editor
+might have reached out for Mr. George C. Hazelton's and Mr. Benrimo's
+"The Yellow Jacket," Mr. Charles Kenyon's "Kindling," and Mr. A.E.
+Thomas's "Her Husband's Wife." He might likewise have included William
+Vaughn Moody's "The Great Divide." These are all representative plays by
+American dramatists for some future anthologist, when present editions
+become rare.
+
+But here are offered plays that will enrich the American dramatic
+library because of their rarity, and for that reason others have been
+excluded, which are easily procurable in print.
+
+Through the courteous co-operation of Dr. Fred W. Atkinson, Professor
+Brander Matthews, officials of the New York Public Library, The Library
+Society of Philadelphia, Mr. Robert Gould Shaw, Custodian of the
+Dramatic Collection of Harvard College Library, and through the generous
+response of the owners of copyrights and manuscripts, the present volume
+is made possible. The Editor, through every phase of his work, has had
+the unswerving encouragement and assistance of his wife.

+BIBLIOGRAPHY OF GENERAL WORKS
+
+
+A large bibliography of standard works on the American
+Theatre was given in Volume I of the present collection. A
+very few of the titles have been repeated here, with the additional
+inclusion of books which will present the essential spirit of
+modern American playwriting. Some of these works mentioned
+contain further bibliographies, and these will enable the student
+to go as far in the field as desired. There are still unblazed trails for
+the research worker, but these trails are becoming fewer and
+fewer, as interest in the study of American Drama as a social
+and artistic force progresses.
