Written to honour the distinguished work and career of Alexandra F.
Johnston, 'Bring furth the pagants' brings together original essays
in early English drama by colleagues and students of the founder
and director of the Records of Early English Drama Project
Editors David N. Klausner and Karen Sawyer Marsalek have grouped
the contributions into three primary areas of Johnston's research:
the study of documentary records in relation to drama, including
new research on the York documents; the interpretation of early
English drama, focusing both on the biblical plays and also on the
moral interludes, including a broad survey of the role of the
Expositor figure in English and French plays; and the drama of the
later sixteenth and seventeenth centuries (Marlowe and Shakespeare)
from the standpoint of its medieval background.
Diverse, thought-provoking, and original, this collection acts
as an important complement to the REED volumes and provides a
fitting tribute to the scholar it honours.
