Focusing on the nature of acting as an art form, this collection of articles by Lewes critiques the prevailing opinions that hinder its appreciation. Covering notable actors like Edmund Kean and Rachel, as well as the theatrical landscapes of Paris, Germany, and Spain, the essays explore the evolution of performance and criticism. Lewes emphasizes the importance of understanding acting beyond superficial judgments, advocating for a more systematic approach to criticism in the theater.
