Perspectives

"The peculiar power and universality of Pericles and the subsequent romances, it seems to me, has less to do with with their 'conventional' or 'mythic' or 'archetypal' dimension than with their medieval dimension. Or perhaps the two are finally inseparable and the same, to the extent that the apparent crudeness and naivete of such plays is the condition of their power and universality." -Howard Felprin, This Great Miracle: Pericles

"For poetry is now expected to make, rather than to bind and harmonize, his [Shakespeare's] story [Pericles]. The quality which formerly interpenetrated the story now is the story... We have poetry, as It were , writing Itself and are to see what new thing unfolds. The resulting work will be nearer faery-lore than realistic drama .. " -G. Wilson Knight, On The Writing of Pericles

"What seas what shores what granite islands towards my timbers And woodthrush calling through the fog My daughter." - T.S. Eliot, from his poem Marina 111 ..3 Who's Who
