Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The rich tapestry of medieval belief, morality, and manners, shines through this comprehensive anthology of the twenty-four major plays that bridge the dramatic worlds of medieval and Tudor England. Here are the plays that paved the way to the Renaissance and Shakespeare. In John Gassner's extensively annotated collection, the plays regain their timeless appeal and display their truly international character and influence. Medieval and Tudor Drama remains the indispensable chronicle of a dramatic heritage - the classical plays of Hrotsvitha, folk and ritual drama, the passion play, the great mortality play Everyman, the Interlude, Tudor comedies Ralph Roister Doister and Gammer Gurton's Needle, and the most famous of Tudor tragedies, Gorboduc. Mr. Gassner's introductions and notes tell a tale of excellence and evolution too easily forgotten. The texts have been modernized for today's readers and those composed in Latin have been translated into English.…

Condition: Good. During early colonial times, traveling actors and troupes from London took the first tentative steps in establishing America's theatrical tradition. The nation's history of theater evolved slowly, but the nineteenth-century development of an authentic American theatrical voice gave rise to a growing number of noteworthy indigenous playwrights by the early 1900s. This carefully edited volume charts the progress of the American theater between 1787 and 1911, with a chronological selection of 16 of the best works from that period: The Contrast, Royall Tyler (1787)Superstition, James N. Barker (1824)Charles the Second, John Howard Payne and Washington Irving (1824)Fashion, Anna Cora Mowatt (1845)Uncle Tom's Cabin, George L. Aiken (1852)The Octoroon, Dion Boucicault (1859)The Count of Monte Cristo, Charles Fechter (1883)The Mouse-Trap, William Dean Howells (1889)Secret Service, William Gillette (1896)The Great Divide, William Vaughn Moody (1906)The New York Idea, Langdon Mitchell (1906)The Truth, Clyde Fitch (1907)The Witching Hour, Augustus Thomas (1907)Salvation Nell, Edward Sheldon (1908)The Easiest Way, Eugene Walter (1909)The Scarecrow, Percy MacKaye (1911)Representative rather than comprehensive, this highly readable volume combines familiar but historically important plays with less well-known pieces for a fascinating introduction to early American drama.Note: As all these plays are copyright-free, they can be performed without fee or permission by professional and amateur groups.…
