英文摘要 | This essay explores the plays in which Garrick plays a heroic role, such as Shakespeare's King John (1745), Glover's Boadicia (1753), Brown's Athelstan (1756), Rowe's Jane Shore (1743), Havard's Regulus (1744), Whitehead's The Roman Father (1750), Crisp's Virginia (1754), and Murphy's The Orphan of China (1759), and seeks to demonstrate that Garrick's productions of these plays tend to criticise the patriotic heroes' victimization of the heroines, either through the declarations in the epilogues or prologues, or through plot alterations from earlier versions of similar plays. These productions, helped by Garrick's unaffected manners of acting, reinforce the significance of woman's role in relation to more humanistic patriotism that pays attention to woman's emotions. |
