THORNDIKE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Published May iqoS bo' PREFACE ^ This book attempts to trace the course of English tragedy from its beginnings to the middle of the nineteenth cen- -j tury, and to indicate the part which it has played in the ^ history both of the theatre and of literature. All tragedies of the sixteenth century are noticed, because of their his- torical interest and their close relationship to Shakespeare, but after 1600 only representative plays have been con- sidered. The aim of this series has been kept in view, and the discussion, whether of individual plays or of dramatic conditions, has been determined by their importance in the study of a literary type. Tragedy in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries has attracted very little critical atten- tion, and in those fields the book is something of a pioneer. The Elizabethan drama, on the contrary, has been the subject of a vast amount of antiquarian, biographical, and literary research, without which such a treatment as I have attempted would be almost impossible. In order, however, to keep the main purpose in view, it has been necessary to omit nearly all notice of the processes of research or the debates of criticism, and to give only what seem to me the results.

  • The Complete Netbook of Demons and Their Relatives
    The Complete Netbook of Demons and their Relatives. (Book not signed or dated) Politics of the abyss: As you already know if you have read Monster Manual one, that Orcus and Demogorgon are suppose to be the two most powerful demon rulers of the abyss. Monster Manual seems to add to the problem of the relative power of that of Orcus to other demons such as Pazuzues (who could probably beat any demon mentioned in Monster Manual one or Monster Manual two... most of the time). Perhaps what Gary Gygax meant to say was that Orcus and Demogorgon were the two most powerful demons who were contending for the rulership of the abyss. Obviously, since Pazuzu is not contending for planes as Orcus and Demogorgon are, then that may solve the discrepency in the statements made in the first Monster Manual. Another interesting feature in Monster Manual one that dealt with the politics of the lower planes, is that Gary seemed to make gods (such as Geryon and Moloch) from different pantheons fighting each other. So that would explain why Orcus (an Etruscan deity) was fighting Demogorgon (a greek deity). Although this doesn't make much sense since history does not put the Etruscans and Greeks at odds with each other unless you think of the Etruscans as pre-Roman in culture. That would mean that the Roman god (Orcus) was fighting the Greek god (Demogorgon), an interesting parallel if compared to the real world. If you take a look at history (and Monster Manual II), you see that there are many more demons originating from both the Etruscan and Greek Mythology.

Sometimes, though, some of us forget just how strange all of this stuff is to the unitiated. In the eyes of the mainstream of contemporary culture, what we do — play “games” — is decidedly different. Some would even call it strange . Some of us seem to revel in this strangeness, using it as a shield for other flaky behavior. Sometimes this is good, but more often, it is not so good. A good friend of mine looks forward to the newest magazines each time I visit home. He doesn’t play games, but he always reads each issue from cover to cover.
