TT is a great tribute to an artist, especially
L reast, that we complain of what he has left
out. With the average realist we are more likely
to complain of all he has put in.
It marks something universal in the work that
we criticse it as an imperfect universe. And in
the Five Tales which Mr.. John Galsworthy has
recently published with Messrs. Henemann New
York: Charles Scrbner's Sons. $1.50) there is
type of tragedy only to be criticised by comparison
with the great tragedies, even if think the COM
parison unfavourable.
1t is a matter of impression; and every one
would not think it unfavourable 1t might be ex-
pressed by saying that the authors strong socio-
logical imagination sees human evils too much in
mass, and almost middle 1t might be ex-
pressed by saying that his great gifts do not include
principle of distinction.
Murder and the French Jury.
The first tale for instance, is powerful study of
two brothers, one a wastrel who commits murder,
and the other great lawyer who commits the worse
crime of letting an innocent man die for the MUIR
der. 1t is touching and even terrible; but l am
haunted throughout by the simple criticism that it
was not murder at all. 1t was crime passionel,
directly provoked; and French jury would have
seen that nobody died for it.
People used to call such French jury sentiment
tai. AS fact, such French jury would be
rational and even hard headed 1t is the hanging
jury that would be sentimental, being moved by the
mere splashing of blood and sensationalism of sud-
den death The French jury would have logical
test of truth and this small instance somehow sug
gests to me all the absence of such a test from
modern tragedy.
The Morals of Novelists.
There is one answer, necessary but often
neglected, to the old question of whether poet
should preach philosophy, or whether novelist
should inculcae a morality. 1t is that whether or
no an artist teaches philosophy, he must have
philosophy; whether or a story expounds
morality, it must contain one.
And with different morality it would always
be different story. Othello does not preach the
doctrine that a mans marriage is a part of his
honour but it does assume it. Once suppose
another theory and there is tragedy, and indeed
no play.
A Shakespeare for Eugenics Glasses.
Once suppose that Othello and Desdemona are
temporarily linked together, experiment i'm
posed by the Eugenic Communist Council, which is
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1918-10-27

matching white women with various shades of
brown men, and the point of decacy disappears
Once imagine that the Eugenists intend in any
to try Desdemona again with Red Indian or
Chinaman, and the lady could hardly be blamed
for making an experiment of her own with a more
Caucasian type named Cassie.
1t is absurd in that sense to say that the art is
immoral, for it would not even exist without the
morality
Hamlet does not inculcate a copy book COM
mandment that sons owe loyalty to their fathers;
but it assumes that they do. Suppose that there
was something so rotten in the state of Denmark
that the State had taken all the babies the
enlightened ideal of the Founding Hospital, train
ing the new, wise child who does not know his own
father.
Suppose that Hamlet passes through the play
without even knowing that he is not the son Of
Claudius, and not without nervous intuition that
he may be the son of Polonius. Possibly that also
would be tragedy, but slightly different tragedy;
and one verging on what Polonus himself might
call the tragical-h istorical-comical -.. ..
In the Days When There Was a Right and
Wrong.
The great writers of the tragic tradition took the
great things of good and evil for granted. They
were not mOralisers but they moralists in the
sense that they knew what is moral and not merely,
like some CT the moderns what is immoral.
Macbeth is not troubled by Pacifst morality
about whether he ought to be a soldier; but only by
an Anticipated Christian morality about whether it
is altogether nice to be murderer. He has a
morality, which he violates; but he has it at the
start as an assumption as well as at the end as a
deduction.
Personally l think the permanent greatness Of
these great works is largely founded on that as
sumption. There is moral to the fable; only, odd
as it may sound, the moral comes first and the fable
afterward.
The Pathetic Search of Galsworthy and Wells
Now what 1 feel, for good or evil, about the
genius of man like MIR. Galsworthy, as feel it
in another way about the genius of man like Mr..
Wells, is that such man is always seeking the thing
with which these greater men started out
Mr. Galsworthy has vivid vision of all that is
wrong, but he does not it in the light of clear
idea of what is right. Both he and Mr.. Wells
sometimes tempt us to recognize in their realism
only grand sort of grumbling. For that nameless
quality which constitutes grumblng consists in the
suspicion that man knows what he does not like
without necessarily knowing what he does like.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1918-10-27

Tragedy and Mr.. Galsworthy

Stated thus the suggestion would be unfair to the
modern realiss, but only because their negative in
dignatiOn is noble not because their positive
ideal is more plain. Anyhow, the point here is
that the modern tragedy begins the other eud from
the ancient tragedy. 1t does not show common
sense and common morals in difficulties amid the
chaos of circumstances Rather it begins with the
chaos of circumstances, and if it tries to turn the
chaos into cosmos it is far from certain what shape
the cosmos ought to be.
Where-Am-I Fictioneers.
The modern writer sets out to discover what he
really believes His own first prinep pies are always
the very last things that he looks for. Not having
begun with common sense and common morals,
having more often begun with the assumption that
they must be all cant and convention, he does not
know what to restore or even what to regret.
He has all sorts of fascinating but fragmentary
glmpses of uncommon morals, he often comes by
accident and with establishment, upon common
morals; and sometimes even has flashing and fleet
ing vision of common sense.
Pardon, Mr.. Galsworthy, but the Trouble Lies
Here.
It is unfair to take tale by Mr.. Galsworthy as
text for such rambling reflections criticisms, but
this is as near as / can get to defining the defect
that haunts me in these five tales and especially in
the first and best of them.
Mr. Galsworthy shows, he has an unrivalled
power of showing, how ugly and unjust is most OF
our social machinery; nor could any one do either
a saner or more sacred work. He has an inspired
nose so to speak, for that unpleasant thing which
generally goes with machinery OIL He knows how
oily is that oil; how greasy is the humbug which
hurries the wheels of government or misgovern-
ment.
He shows that machinery everywhere breaking
good into pieces What he does not show, feel, is
that he himself would know how to put it together
again.
do not refer of course, to any social scheme,
which is not the business of artist refer to the
social ideal, which has been suggest, at the back
of the minds of the great artists of the past; but
which is itself something dim and distant for the
best artists of the present. We might almost say
it is their ideal to have an ideal. Their gimpses
of good are fragmentary not only in fact but in
fancy And so long as they are not assured OF any
central sanity struggling with the. insanities of
society, the modern realistic romance will mtinue
to be a novel without hero.
