Excerpt from The Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashions and Politics
French critics have been divided in Opinion concerning the merits of Talma, who is the creator of a new style of declamation on the French stage. Some have accused him of heaviness in his delivery, a hollow ness of tone, and a voice which is almost always confined, and which never developes itself except by sudden bursts. Others declare him to be a model of the beau t'déal, and an artist who has arrived at a degree of perfection which none ever before attained, and 'whieh none can in future hope to acquire.
Impartial amateurs agree that no one equals Talma in the character of a tyrant or a conspirator, such as Nero, Manlius, &c.; but in those which require spirit, nobleness, and dignity, like Tancred, Oros manes, Achilles, Ste. They prefer La Fond, who at this moment shares with him the tragic sceptre of the T lieu/re Frangais.
