The Digby Play of Mary Magdalene: A Broadview Anthology of British Literature Edition - Paperback
by Chester N. Scoville (Editor), Christina M. Fitzgerald (Editor), John T. Sebastian (Editor)
Few medieval plays in English have attracted as much twenty-first-century interest as the Digby Mary Magdalene, an early-fifteenth-century drama that, as Chester Scoville puts it, is "probably the most spectacular of the late medieval English plays." This new edition presents a modernized text of the play, with extensive annotation (both marginal glosses and explanatory footnotes), an insightful introduction, and a helpful selection of background contextual materials.
