A story of the poetic values in drama explored through ten essays presenting ten dramatists. The essayist deplores the passing of the significance of poetic values, he feels that only T. S. Eliot is attempting to establish standards, criterions. He goes back to Grillparzer and Heback, 1820-1860; and he comes forward to Eliot and Synge and Yeats. For the student of drama there may be a freshness of viewpoint here, a new appraisal of poetic values. For the average reader, this offers little stimulus. (Kirkus Reviews)

In a series of essays on representative dramatists, Ronald Peacock follows the fortunes of poetic drama in Europe from the decline of romanticism, through the age of realism, to the renewal of poetic forms in the 1930s.
