The Cambridge Companion to Medieval English Theatre, second edition continues to provide an authoritative introduction and an up-to-date, illustrated guide to the mystery cycles, morality drama and saints' plays which flourished from the late fourteenth to the mid-sixteenth centuries. The book emphasises regional diversity in the period and engages with the literary and particularly the theatrical values of the plays. Existing chapters have been revised and updated where necessary, and there are three entirely new chapters, including one on the cultural significance of early drama. A thoroughly revised reference section includes a guide to scholarship and criticism, an enlarged classified bibliography and a chronological table.Cambridge companions to literature.TheaterEnglandHistoryMedieval, 500-1500English dramaTo 1500History and criticismBible plays, EnglishHistory and criticismChristian drama, English (Middle)History and criticismTheaterHistoryEnglish dramaHistory and criticism.Bible plays, EnglishHistory and criticism.Christian drama, English (Middle)History and criticism.792.0942/0902Beadle RichardFletcher Alan J.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996210336303316Cambridge companion to medieval english theatre890141UNISAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
