Cit. , page 37-9. 89 which have been largely the epic scenes, 38 or those whose sub- stance could be given in short narratives. The result, while gained at the expense of some touches of great significance, especially in the character of Richard, is decidedly a concen- tration upon the important aspects of the theme, and a more direct exposition of the central figure. About half of Shake- speare's characters are omitted, and thus many parts of scenes. The sparing use of epic scenes and the smaller number of characters as compared with the Elizabethan plays, we have already found obtaining in the heroic play, and mark the trag- edies of this period.
