Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mediaeval Stage, Vol. 1 Some years ago I was thinking of a little book, which now may or may not ever get itself finished, about Shakespeare and the conditions, literary and dramatic, under which Shake Speare wrote. My proper task would have begun with the middle of the sixteenth century. But it seemed natural to put first some short account of the origins of play-acting in England and of its development during the Middle Ages. Unfortunately it soon became apparent that the basis for such a narrative was wanting. The history of the mediaeval theatre had never, from an English point of View, been written. The initial chapter of Collier's Amzals of Me Stage is even less adequate than is usual with this slovenly and dishonest antiquary. It is with some satisfaction that, in Spite of the barrier set up by an incorrect reference, I have resolved one dramatic representation elaborately described by Collier into a soteltz'e or sweetmeat.

Yet from a study of such facts, I am sure, any literary history, which does not confine itself solely to the analysis of genius, must make a start. An attempt of my own to fill the gap has grown into these two volumes, which have, I fear, been unduly swelled by the inclusion of new interests as, from time to time, they took hold upon me; an interest, for example, in the light-hearted and coloured life of those poverelli of letters, the minstrel folk; a very deep interest in the track across the ages of certain customs and symbols of rural gaiety which bear with them the inheritance of a remote and ancestral heathenism. I can only hope that this disproportionate treatment of parts has not wholly destroyed the unity of purpose at which, after all, I aimed.

Download or read book The Medieval European Stage 500 1550 written by William Tydeman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-09-27 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together a wide selection of primary source materials from the theatrical history of the Middle Ages. The focus is on Western Europe between the fall of the Roman Empire and the emergence of markedly Renaissance forms in Italy. Early sections of the volume are devoted to the survival of Classical tradition and the development of the liturgical drama of the Roman Catholic Church, but the main concentration is on the genesis and growth of popular religious drama in the vernacular. Each of the major medieval regions is featured, while a final section covers the pastimes and customs of the people, a record of whose traditional activities often only survives in the margins of official recognition. The documents are compiled by a team of leading scholars in the field and the over 700 documents are all presented in modern English translation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stage Decoration in France, in the Middle Ages In order to fill the' lacunae in the history of stage setting, plays must be utilized which give little or even no hint Of their scenery in stage directions, such as the Miracles de N otre Dame and practically all profane plays. How are we to gain information in regard to the setting of such plays, if stage directions are lacking? There is but one way: the lines themselves must furnish the desired evidence. This method, therefore, whether it be considered good or bad, must be accepted if one wishes to carry investi gations of the subject farther than they have reached at present. The question must be de cided whether these plays without stage direc tions were also without scenery; and if they had scenery, it must be reconstructed.
