Excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson as a Dramatist In the preface to his 'Life of Robe Louis Stevenson, ' Mr. Graham Balfour has re. minded us of the traditional opinion that "All Biography would be Autobiography if it could." On similar grounds, it might be stated that all dramatic criticism should be written by dramatists. No one but a dramatist can fully appreciate the difficulty of achieving "that compression of life which the stage undoubtedly demands without falsification"; and no one else is fitted to understand so well the infinitude of technical devices that must be employed strategically to overcome this difficulty. It is unfortunate for criticism that most dramatists are kept so busy putting plays together that they are left no leisure for pulling plays apart, in order to explain the method of their making, for the benefit of students of the craft.
