''A Study Of The Prologue And Epilogue In English Literature: From Shakespeare To Dryden'' is a literary analysis book written by George Spencer Bower and originally published in 1884. The book explores the use of prologues and epilogues in English literature during the Renaissance period, specifically focusing on the works of William Shakespeare and John Dryden. Bower examines the purpose and function of these literary devices, which were commonly used to introduce and conclude plays and other works of literature during this time period. He analyzes the different types of prologues and epilogues, including those that address the audience directly, those that provide background information, and those that set the tone for the play or work that follows.Throughout the book, Bower provides numerous examples from Shakespeare’s plays and Dryden’s works, demonstrating how these writers used prologues and epilogues to enhance their works and engage their audiences. He also explores the evolution of these devices over time, from their origins in ancient Greek drama to their use in contemporary English literature.Overall, ''A Study Of The Prologue And Epilogue In English Literature: From Shakespeare To Dryden'' provides a comprehensive analysis of two important literary devices and their role in shaping English literature during the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
