Neo-Latin Drama in Early Modern Europe
Author: Jan BloemendalPublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004257462

Languages : en
Pages : 808
Book Description
From ca. 1300 a new genre developed in European literature, Neo-Latin drama. Building on medieval drama, vernacular theatre and classical drama, it spread around Europe. It was often used as a means to educate young boys in Latin, in acting and in moral issues. Comedies, tragedies and mixed forms were written. The Societas Jesu employed Latin drama in their education and public relations on a large scale. They had borrowed the concept of this drama from the humanist and Protestant gymnasia, and perfected it to a multi media show. However, the genre does not receive the attention that it deserves. In this volume, a historical overview of this genre is given, as well as analyses of separate plays. Contributors include: Jan Bloemendal, Jean-Frédéric Chevalier, Cora Dietl, Mathieu Ferrand, Howard Norland, Joaquín Pascual Barea, Fidel Rädle, and Raija Sarasti Willenius.

Book Description
Excerpt from Faust: A Lyric Drama in Five Acts Here a considerable interval of time occurs. Then Marguerite is again seen, having been loved, cherished, and deserted. Her little child is her only companion. Her brother te turns from the war, and the same evening Faust and the fiend also return, the-latter, with devilish intent, singing an insulting serenade. Valentine rushes out, fights with Faust, falls and dies, cursing his sister. Next comes the church scene, where the poor girl, trying to pray, is confused, bewildered, and finally frightened into insanity by the mocking voices of demons near her, who remind her that she is lost, and cannot pray, that there is no mercy left for her. In this state she kills her child. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
