Literary Theft Is Not Stealing; 1t is
Called Genius

All authors steal The capacity for
stealing with art and elegance is one
of the most potent equipments of the
literary man.
Shakespeare was magnificent thief.
He stole whatever he could lay his
hands on in a literary way and never
married in the stealing He stole
Measure For Measure" from a play
called "Promos and Cassandra." He
stole Hamlet from play by George
Kyd. Romeo and Juliet he stole
from Italy.
Sir Walter Scott stole with a sublime
talent. He stole from antiquarian rec
Ords He stole from Goethe He stole
from Sheridan.
Charles Reade claimed the right of
the literary artist to set jewels even
though the gems are the property Of
another.
Alexandra Dumas. the author of
The Three Musketeers" and Monte
Cristo," was one of the most remarka-
Bile filchers in literature. In one single
year his name was attached to no few
err than forty different books. Not only
Old he steal unblushingly from every
author who came handy, but he EN-
ployed numerous literary ghosts and
passed off their work as his own.
Brought to book, he had a ready re-
ply. THE man of genius does not
steal he said; ''he only conquers.'
Alexander Pope,s who made thou
sands of pounds by his poetic transla-
ton Of Homer's "Iliad," was an indif-
ferent Greek scholar In addition to
stealing from previous translators, he
employed others to help and then
claimed the whole work as his own.

ne kept the public in ignorance that
only twelve books could be called his
and that the rest were the work of men
whom he paid badly
The arguments in Pope's Essay on
Man were furnished by Lord Boiling
