NOTE TO THE SECOND EDITION

This edition is substantially identical with the first; but it and its

later impressions contain a few improvements in points of detail, and,

thanks to criticisms by my brother, F. H. Bradley, I hope to have made

my meaning clearer in some pages of the second lecture.

There was an oversight in the first edition which I regret. In adding

the note on p. 247 I forgot that I had not referred to Professor Dowden

in the lecture on "Shakespeare the Man." In everything that I have

written on Shakespeare I am indebted to Professor Dowden, and certainly

not least in that lecture.
