To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Representation confines it to one. Take a simple phrase like, "he fell." Representative pantomime becomes ridiculous and can only indicate vaguely and indifferently the direction or location of the fall. But manifestive pantomime can reveal the feelings of the man who contemplates the fall. It can show that the fall was comical, was dangerous, that it was a moral fall, a literal fall, a fall to be regretted or to be rejoiced over, a fall that caused surprise or awakened anger, a fall that broug...ht ruin or escape to the innocent. Besides, the element of manifestation is always present. The positions of a man manifest, they do not represent the conditions of his soul. The actions of the face mani- fest the feelings of the mind. This manifestative ele- ment is never absent, the representative is only there occasionally and only in descriptive passages. Again, representation only belongs to the hand and arm, while manifestation belongs to the face and the whole body. Great oratory has little or no representative element in voice or pantomime.
