This article presents information on the book "The Ancient Classical Drama: A Study in Literary Evolution," by Richard G. Moulton. It is informed that Mr. Moulton's book is a study of very ancient material from a novel and interesting point of view. It is opined that Mr. Moulton has shown the skill and resource in the difficult task of introducing his untravelled reader to the flavor of the mangosteen. He does this the more successfully because his own work shows everywhere a fresh and immediate acquaintance with the original sources. He dwells with great variety of illustration on the difference between the ancient and the modern dramatic form and conception, and illustrates this by many felicitous comparisons.
