Liturgical Drama and the Reimagining of Medieval Theater

The expression 'liturgical drama' was formulated in 1834 as a metaphor and hardened into formal category later in the 19th century. Previously, the medieval rites and representations that would forge the category were understood as distinct and unrelated classes: as liturgical rites no longer celebrated or as theatrical works of dubious quality.

The expression "liturgical drama" was formulated in 1834 as a metaphor and hardened into a formal category only later in the nineteenth century. Prior to this invention, the medieval rites and representations that would forge the category were understood as distinct and unrelated classes: as liturgical rites no longer celebrated or as theatrical works of dubious quality. This ground-breaking work examines "liturgical drama" according to the contexts of their presentations within the manuscripts and books that preserve them.
