King Lear and Indian Politics— By the Hon. Rev. William Miller, c.i.E., ll.d., Principal of the Madras Christian College. After preliminary remarks on the date and sources of the play, Dr. Miller sets himself to de- termine the point of view from which it ought to be regarded as a whole. He finds two great thoughts running through the tragedy, and traces, at considerable length, how these find expression in the history of each of the principal personages. He goes on to show how the thoughts thus trans- lated into action on the stage cast light on the chief problems of human life, and especially on the right constitution and healthy growth of human society. The book closes vrith a discussion of the way in which the principles exemplified in King Lear bear on the present state and future progress of social and political life in India.
