The Mob is a play written by John Galsworthy, divided into four acts. The play was first performed in London in 1908 and was later published in 1909. The play is set in London and follows the story of a wealthy businessman, John Mangan, who is accused of fraud and embezzlement. Mangan is put on trial, and the play explores the reactions of various characters to the trial and its outcome. The title of the play refers to the mob mentality that arises during the trial, as people take sides and become emotionally invested in the outcome. The play delves into themes of justice, morality, and the power of public opinion. Throughout the play, Galsworthy uses a variety of characters to represent different viewpoints and attitudes towards the trial. These characters include Mangan's family members, his business associates, and members of the public who become involved in the trial. Overall, The Mob is a thought-provoking play that raises important questions about the nature of justice and the impact of public opinion on legal proceedings.THE DEAN. [Trying to bring matters to a blander level] My dear Stephen, even if you were right--which I deny--about the initial merits, there surely comes a point where the individual conscience must resign it self to the country's feeling. This has become a question of national honour.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
