To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We call your par- ticular attention to this process of the dramatist's mind in providing Objective scenes which include all the other means of expression. The whole tendency of the drama is toward symbolizing everything, and when a miser is de- picted, his greed and spirit are shown as he gloats over his coin. This is not suggested as inevitable. It does not mean that that is the only symbolism that can be used. Neptune is symbolized with his trident, and thus is conven- tionalized. Polydor is ...a miser and his leading passion is expressed sufficiently in what he says and does. Certain things in a play must be made visual, that is to say, Objective. Immaterial things need not be shown, but the Material things must be. In the very first scene of "The Lady of Lyons" we see the pride. Instigated by her mother, Pauline is out for an exalted marriage ; that is plain enough. She has suitors ; the flowers show that ; Beauseant appears to ask for her hand; and the reference by Damas to the ball adds to the proof.
