Both dramatic composition and histrionic art had greatly risen since Lessing's time : and we must particularly mention three actors, who are intimately connected with this improve- ment:— Eckhof (1720— 1778), Schrod...er (1744— 1816), andllfland. Eckhof established himself at Gotha, and paid his homage to French taste ; SchrSder, at Hamburg and Vienna, devoted him- self to the British drama and Shakspeare ; and Iffland, the pu- pil of Eckhof and Gotter, followed Diderot.
