Dramatic Traditions of the Dark Ages is a scholarly work written by Joseph Salathiel Tunison. The book explores the theatrical traditions of the Dark Ages, a period of European history spanning from the fall of the Roman Empire in the 5th century to the beginning of the High Middle Ages in the 11th century. The author delves into the origins of medieval drama, tracing its roots to pagan rituals and early Christian liturgy. Tunison examines the various forms of drama that emerged during this period, including liturgical drama, mystery plays, and morality plays, and explores their themes, characters, and symbolism. He also discusses the role of the church in shaping the development of medieval drama and the influence of classical drama on the works of medieval playwrights. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the dramatic traditions of the Dark Ages and sheds light on the cultural and social context in which they emerged. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval literature, drama, and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
