About this Item

8vo, pp. [ii], 110; presentation copy to George Stephens from Smith, torn at spine; good in original plain tan wrappers. One of the few pre-Reformation morality plays, written by Hans Sthen who was also a lyrical poet. The title translates to "Change of Fortune"; the play is really a collection of monologues to be delivered by students. Smith, a 19th-century scholar of early Danish drama, provides textual and literary background. Stephens notes on front wrapper: "Only 25 copies printed of this overprint.". Seller Inventory # 12127
