THE SONG OF SONGS, WHICH ISSHELDONS The Song of Songs—Eltinge Theater, December 22, IQ14 The Song of Songs, which is Solomons, whichis Sudermanns, and which is now Sheldons. Asibilant fate seems to follow it! But Solomon need not concern us, the more ashe probably had nothing whatever to do with theoriginal song. The play by Edward Sheldon, basedon the novel by Hermann Sudermann, is our con-cern. The Song of Songs, in an English trans-lation, has gone into a good many editions and isdoubtless familiar to many readers of this review.It is a striking novel, full of that admirably subtlepsychology which characterizes the continentalnovelists when they analyze sensual passion, anddeveloping its theme slowly, with a wealth of neces-sary but unpleasant detail, till it builds up a con-vincing picture of a certain type of woman—or, let us say, a certain woman—in whom a sensual nature 104.
