Against a background which included revolutionary changes in
religious belief, extensive enlargement of dramatic styles and the
technological innovation of printing, this collection of essays
about biblical drama offers innovative approaches to text and
performance, while reviewing some well-established critical issues.
The Bible in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries appears in a
complex of roles in relation to the drama: as an authority and
centre of belief, a place of controversy, an emotional experience
and, at times, a weapon. This collection brings into focus the new
biblical learning, including the re-editing of biblical texts, as
well as classical influences, and it gives a unique view of the
relationship between the Bible and the drama at a critical time for
both. Contributors are: Stephanie Allen, David Bevington, Philip
Butterworth, Sarah Carpenter, Philip Crispin, Clifford Davidson,
Elisabeth Dutton, Garrett P. J. Epp, Bob Godfrey, Peter Happe,
James McBain, Roberta Mullini, Katie Normington, Margaret Rogerson,
Charlotte Steenbrugge, Greg Walker, and Diana Wyatt.
