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. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aTheater$zEngland$xHistory$yMedieval, 500-1500 606 $aEnglish drama$yTo 1500$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBible plays, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aChristian drama, English (Middle)$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBible plays, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aChristian drama, English (Middle)$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a792.0942/0902 702 $aBeadle$b Richard 702 $aFletcher$b Alan J. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996210336303316 996 $aCambridge companion to medieval english theatre$9890141 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis 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
