The Digby Play of Mary Magdalene is a rare, surviving example of the Middle English saint play. It provides a window on the deep embedding of biblical drama and performance in late medieval devotional practices, social aspiration and critique, and religious discourses. Fully annotated and extensively glossed, this edition adds to the METS Drama series an essential resource for the study of late medieval English religious drama.

Recensioner i media

This attractive edition by Theresa Coletti, an expert on medieval English drama and the author of a monograph on the play and its contexts, [1] may--I hope--kickstart a more general interest in this remarkable work, especially by historians of both English theater and gender and sexuality. . . . This is an excellent edition for graduates, and advanced scholars, and even for undergraduates. It is accessible, informative, scholarly, and completely reliable. --Ruth Evans, University of St. Louis
