Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Literary History of the English People, Vol. 1 Four Tudors had disappeared; Queen Elizabeth had been many years on the throne, and no signs could yet be discerned of the extraordinary development that dramatic art was to attain in England. During the main part of the sixteenth century, that country still had, so to speak, anybody´s dramatic literature. The differences were unimportant; they have been noticed only because they became later so conspicuous. Until the last quarter of the century, nothing appeared in the island which could not be seen elsewhere too, and no particular merit was observable. Mysteries preserved their popularity; in spite of all the efforts to suppress them, they were performed up to the end of the Tudor period. The Creation, Epiphany, and Passion, the manger at Bethlehem, and the cross on Golgotha continued to edify the multitude; the rant of tetrarchs, sultans, and pagan emperors, the tricks and black deeds of devils, continued to amuse or terrify.
