About this issue

This issue of Munsey's Magazine (November 1893) contains a lengthy illustrated essay titled "The Master Reader of Humanity" by George Holme, examining Shakespeare's genius for understanding and depicting human nature and passion. Holme argues that Shakespeare's supreme achievement was recognizing character with perfect truth and proportion, allowing him to compress life's drama onto the stage without moralizing. The essay discusses specific plays: Romeo and Juliet as a tragedy of youth and love defeated by family enmity; Othello, analyzing Iago's motiveless malignity and Othello's honorable susceptibility to jealousy, and Desdemona's pure passivity; Hamlet, with Ophelia as the pure woman, and Hamlet himself as a complex figure of intellectual doubt; and King Richard III, portraying deformity shaping moral corruption. The text includes reproductions of paintings depicting scenes from these plays.
