Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of the Thais Legend With Special Reference to Hrothsvitha's "Paphnutius" A Thesis It cannot be my purpose to attempt anything so ambitious as that here. My aim will be to trace the Thais legend from its Obscure beginnings to Hrotsvitha, through the Middle Ages, to its resuscitation by Anatole France and his imitators. Hrots vitha's version will be especially stressed and made more promi nent by attempting an English translation Of her play, not only because this was the first purely literary use made of the Thais legend but because it was Of great influence on Anatole France 's novel. Although it is a very difficult and hazardous matter to try to Show analogies between two authors with such divergent aims and difference in complexity, separated by more than a millenium, an attempt will nevertheless be made to point out a few of the more obvious details in which the French novelist followed our holy nun.

Download or read book The Theatre in the Middle Ages written by Herman Braet and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume offers a collection of studies intended to give an overall picture of the International Colloquium on Medieval Theatre organized by the Instituut voor Middeleeuwse Studies of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. The reader will probably remark upon the fact that studies on medieval drama are as flourishing and diversified as their object itself once was. From liturgical drama to pageant, from nativity play to mystery, from latin comedy to 'sottie', morality and farce, one discovers here the various aspects of an output that covers more than five centuries. This selection hopefully represents a cross-section of contemporary work in the field. As methods evolve and ways of reading change, the subject reveals itself as something for ever old and new. Thus a number of contributors emphasize a formal approach. Both the analysis of a dramatic production as a structured entity--from the larger viewpoint of scenic organization right down to the level of verse or even rime--and as an actual performance, continue to shed valuable light on the theatrical event in its generic and historical context.
