Everyman and Mankind are morality plays which mark the turn of the
medieval period to the early modern, with their focus on the
individual. Everyman follows a man's journey towards death and his
efforts to secure himself a life thereafter, whilst Mankind shows a
man battling with temptation and sin, often with great humour. Both
texts are modernised here and edited to the highest standards of
scholarship, with full on-page commentaries giving the depth of
information and insight associated with all Arden editions. The
comprehensive, illustrated introduction argues that the plays
signal the birth of the early modern consciousness and puts them in
their historic and religious contexts. An account is also given of
the staging and performance history of the plays and their critical
history and significance. With a wealth of helpful and incisive
commentary this is the finest edition of the plays available.
