Excerpt from The Drama, Vol. 2: Its History, Literature and Influence on Civilization The second part of the volume traces the origin and history of the drama in ancient Rome. The playwrights of the imperial city, whether tragedians or comedians, were close imitators of the Greek dramatists, but decidedly inferior in artistic invention and expression. Yet they have preserved vivid pictures of the ancient world, memorable scenes of mirth and pathos, striking characters and ingenious plots which have served as models for Shakespeare and Moliere, and a troop of later dramatists. Plau tus and Terence are still familiar names, and that acquaintance with their classic works which every cultured person desires is here afforded by abundant selections from their best produc tions, together with judicious explanations and criticisms. The tragedies of Seneca, who was rather a rhetorician than a real dramatist, were none the less accepted as models by the foun ders of the modern classic tragedy in France, and hence have considerable historical impor tance.
