SH AKEsPEARE's DELINEATIoNs OF INSANITY, IMBE-
TLITT, AND SUICIDE BY A. 0. Kellogg, M. D.
Al gents: j. b. Lppncott Co.
Tn { little work before us is intended to cover
a gro und which has escaped almost all the other
comm entators OF Shakespeare, or at least been
treatet tof by them in such manner as not to
debar va expert from throwing new light upon
the subj iect and this intention is artially carried
out. Tlie writer is evidently a great admlrer
and a ca reful student of the bard, but he has
not deep power of penetration, and, as a general
comment ator, is a failure. From his position
AS Physician Of the Utica Insane Asylum, we
might naturally expect that he would treat with
skill those victims of mental malady depicted
by the Father of the Drama. He has more than
fulfilled expectation in some respects, and he
has fallen far short of 1t in others. In point of
Numbers we find, If DR.. Kellogg is to be trusted,
a far greater number of madmen in Shake
sp care than we had any idea of Under the
heading q insane is classed Lear" "Mac.
