Description

This volume six in the Medieval Casebooks Series, first published in 1993 by Routledge, provides comprehensive scholarly analysis of the Chester Mystery Cycle Play manuscripts. The Chester Mystery Cycle comprises twenty-four plays dramatizing salvation history from Creation to Doomsday, representing one of only four surviving English mystery cycles. Originally including a twenty-fifth play depicting the Assumption that was suppressed in the mid-sixteenth century, the cycle stands as a theologically medieval yet historically Renaissance work. This casebook examines the Chester Cycle manuscripts in detail, offering comparative analysis with the York Cycle and contextualising these significant medieval dramatic works within their historical and theological frameworks. Essential reading for scholars of medieval literature, drama, and religious history seeking deeper understanding of these foundational English theatrical texts.
