by Guo Xiaoxia
About This Novel
This book mainly studies the development and evolution process of British medieval drama. British medieval drama mainly had three development lines: the activities of professional actors for the purpose of making a living, the popular performances of the general public, and the dramatic church rituals.

At the end of the 15th century, religious dramas gradually declined and disappeared, interlude dramas gradually emerged, and British drama began to turn to Renaissance humanistic drama. This book combs out the development trajectory of British medieval drama, that is, the development process from early folk secular drama, church ritual drama, middle and late religious drama to episodic drama, and summarizes the basic rules of the development and evolution of British medieval drama, that is, whether the church and the official can educate the people to the maximum extent determine the survival and spread of drama.
