Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This captivating masterpiece explores the origins of theatre. The author delineates how the drama, after lying dormant in the wake of the Roman Empire, emerged during medieval times from the rituals of the Christian church. In the grand cathedrals of Europe, liturgical dramas began as mere extensions of religious practice. Yet within these humble beginnings, the seeds of modern theatre took root. From the Quem Quaeritis trope of the Easter service to the elaborate pageantry of mystery plays, this book traces the evolution of theatrical forms. Blending history, literary analysis, and cultural insights, it unveils the profound impact of Christian ritual on the development of Western drama, showcasing how religious ceremonies sowed the seeds of theatrical storytelling that would flourish in centuries to come. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334189425_0
