Full Description
First published in 1950, English Drama from Early Times to the Elizabethans is a detailed examination of representative plays, and of the growth of a native drama in England up to the foundation of the Tudor stage. The major purpose of this book is to throw light on and to show the link, in tradition and culture, between the medieval miracle, mystery and morality plays and renaissance, particularly Shakespearean, drama. This book will be a valuable read for students and researchers of English literature and literary criticism.
