This collection of essays dissects theatrical conventions, spotlighting the archetypes of the hapless hero and the flamboyant villain with a satirical lens. Jerome's keen observations expose the melodrama and artifice that permeate performances, inviting readers to reflect on the nature of storytelling itself. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this work not only entertains but also challenges the norms of its time. Dive into "Stage-Land" and discover how Jerome's humor and insight remain relevant in critiquing the theatrical arts today.
