description: Excerpt from Rhetoric as a Dramatic Language in Ben Jonson To Professor Douglas Bush, for his patient reading of the chapters as they were first written, I owe a debt that cannot be estimated. I am happy to recall conversations with him on the questions which they raised. His criticism was invaluable to me in revision. I wish to thank also Professor) Harry Levin for reading the manuscript in an earlier form, and Professors Theodore Spencer and F. O. Matthiessen for the encourage ment they gave me at the beginning of this study.
