The Theater of Devotion - East Anglian Drama and Society in the Late Middle Ages

In this interdisciplinary study of drama, arts, and spirituality, Gail Gibson provides a reappraisal of 15th-century England through a detailed portrait of the flourishing cultures of Suffolk and Norfolk. By emphasizing the importance of the Incarnation of Christ as a model and justification for late medieval drama and art, Gibson challenges currently held views of the secularization of late medieval culture.
