Beschreibung:
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The magistrate is, after Sweet Lavender, perhaps, the most popular of Mr. Pinero's plays, and it is particularly interesting as being the first of his works in which his own individuality found ah solutely independent expression, and emphatically and triumphantly asserted itself. In fact this farce marks an epoch in the dramatist's career, and shows him creating a really new and original order of English comic play, the further development of which may be traced in the successive plays which, together with The Magistrate, formed the famous Court series of farces, namely, The Schoolmis tress, Dandy Dick, and The Cabinet Min iste'r.
