- Play Time represents ten years of research, conducting the first monograph-length study of aspects hitherto only studied in journal-length articles. Its multidisciplinary approach combines literary, gender, religious, and performance scholarship. Its diverse primary materials include performance scripts from across England’s major performance centres and less studied materials, including Cornish plays. The period of this monograph spans over five hundred years of drama, from twelfth century liturgical drama to a manuscript from 1611. It examines historical and literary sources across this period to rethink how the plays use gender and religion and to centre performance within wider discourses of lay theology.
