William Tydeman

Gebundenes Buch

English Medieval Theatre

1400-1500

Beschreibung

Originally published in 1986, this volume illuminates the predominant theatrical styles of a particular period in dramatic history. It does this by reconstructing - as far as conjecture permits - the manner in which five major plays of the late Middle Ages might have been staged in fifteenth-century Britain.

Autor

After studying at University College, Oxford William (Bill) Tydeman, (1935-2018) began his teaching career in the English Department at the University College of North Wales in Bangor. Ultimately rising to the position of Professor Emeritus, he remained at UCNW for just over 40 years and during this time, not only had the pleasure of publishing a great many books based on his scholarly interests which were wide ranging - from Medieval poetry, through Tudor plays to Wordsworth, Oscar Wilde and various Welsh authors - but also the privilege of being involved in various practical ways with a great many dramatic productions. As a result, most of the books that he wrote - especially those relating to theatre in the Middle Ages - were not just the result of conscientious academic study, but also of enthusiastic 'hands on' dramatic experiences.
