As precursors of seventeenth-century drama, not only do these interludes shed important light on the technical and literary development of Shakespearean theatre, but many are also works of considerable theatrical or cultural interest in themselves. This accessible reference guide provides an entry for each of the extant interludes and fragments (c. 100) typically containing an account of early editions or manuscripts; authorship and sources; modern editions; plot summary and dramatis personae; list of social issues present in the plays; verbal and dramaturgical features; songs and music; allusions and place names; stage directions and comments on staging; and modern productions, among other valuable and informative details. There are full bibliographies, indexes of characters and songs, and appendices. 606 $aEnglish drama$yEarly modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600$vBibliography 606 $aEnglish drama$yTo 1500$vBibliography 606 $aInterludes, English$vBibliography 615 0$aEnglish drama 615 0$aEnglish drama 615 0$aInterludes, English 676 $a016.822/041 700 $aGrantley$b Darryll$01681719 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810804403321 996 $aEnglish dramatic interludes, 1300-1580$94051305 997 $aUNINA
