Book Description
Excerpt from The Theatre Advancing I think we may listen to anything that Leonardo da Vinci says, and benefit, without indulging in that modern habit of getting peevish and arguing with every authority. "Shun those studies in which the work that results dies with the worker." To us of the theatre these words fall heavily, like a cold douche but I am tingling with the after effects. I am a member of that faculty 3 which produces work, the results of which die with the worker. As such I do not at all like Leonardo da Vinci's warning, and this sets me thinking about my calling, the theatrical faculty. The results certainly die with the worker. Must I shun my studies because of that? I rub my forehead, which wrinkles at the thought. I am puzzled. Our work, then, is like like grass is that it? Which "in the morning is green and groweth up, but in the evening is cut down, dried up arid withered." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
