Description

Beautiful Stories from Shakespeare includes the writings of Shakespeare who have been justly termed ''the richest the purest the fairest that genius uninspired ever penned.'' Shakespeare instructed by delighting. His plays alone (leaving mere science out of the question) contain more actual wisdom than the whole body of English learning. He is the teacher of all good-- pity generosity true courage love. His bright wit is cut out ''into little stars.'' His solid masses of knowledge are meted out in morsels and proverbs and thus distributed there is scarcely a corner of the English-speaking world to-day which he does not illuminate or a cottage which he does not enrich. His bounty is like the sea which though often unacknowledged is everywhere felt. As his friend Ben Jonson wrote of him ''He was not of an age but for all time.'' In this book Edith Nesbit has retold twenty of the best-loved and most beautiful stories from Shakespeare.
