Transcriber’s Notes
Page numbers in the table of contents for illustrations point to the illustration. The placement before/after a full paragraph may have affected the location.
Missing full-stops and abbreviation stops silently added.
The paragraph ending on page 136 with “loses itself in moral fustian” probably is missing the word “melodrama” at the end.
Misspelled words have been corrected. Obsolete and alternative spellings are left unchanged (e.g. ascendent, dilettant, etherial, heterogenous, Shakespearian). Spelling and hyphenation has not been standardised. “Edit Distance” refers to the Levenshtein Distance.
