Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of English theatre and the customs prevalent in the era before Shakespeare, a time when drama was relatively unknown and poorly received. Early religious dramas and the first performances in England were closely tied to religious festivals, often taking… place in or near churches, with themes and stories that centered on biblical events. These early mystery plays, performed by monks or members of religious communities, progressed over time to include farcical interludes and humorous elements. As the plays grew in popularity and began incorporating more complex themes, they migrated from religious settings to schools and universities and eventually professional theater troupes and stages. The author includes fascinating descriptions of a morality play, a Christmas play, and a play about the life of Saint Catherine, providing insight into the form and content of these early theatrical productions. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive historical account of the development of English drama before Shakespeare, providing a valuable resource for scholars, theatre historians, and anyone interested in the origins of one of the world's most influential theatrical traditions.
