The Passion Play In The Highlands Of Bavaria is a book written by Alexander Craig Sellar in 1871. The book is a detailed account of the Passion Play, which is a dramatic presentation of the Passion of Jesus Christ, performed in the town of Oberammergau, Bavaria, Germany. The play is performed once every ten years and has been a tradition in Oberammergau since the 17th century. Sellar's book provides a comprehensive description of the play, its origins, and its significance in the religious and cultural history of Bavaria. He describes the elaborate preparations that go into the production of the play, including the selection of the actors, the construction of the stage and the costumes, and the rehearsals leading up to the performance. The book also provides a detailed analysis of the play itself, including its structure, themes, and symbolism. Sellar examines the various characters in the play, such as Jesus, Mary, and Judas, and their roles in the drama. He also explores the historical and religious context of the play, including its roots in medieval religious drama and its relationship to Catholicism.Overall, The Passion Play In The Highlands Of Bavaria is a fascinating and informative account of one of the most important religious and cultural traditions in Bavaria, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious drama and performance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
