Here we begin The Drama: Its Law and Its Technique, by Elisabeth Woodbridge.
Woodbridge taught dramatic theory about 100 years ago. She loved Freytag and his theories, but in teaching his text, found it lacking as a classroom appendage. So she produced this book as a way of presenting Freytag to her students.
In other words, she cashed in on Freytag and hoped that other professors would also compel their students to buy her book for their courses.
Woodbridge’s book is quite good however. You can find it in the altogether on archive.org, as image files, PDF, OCR raw text, and the html version I will serialize.
