A Collection of English Miracle Plays or Mysteries is a book compiled by William Marriott that contains ten dramas from three different series - Chester, Coventry, and Towneley. These plays are considered to be some of the earliest surviving examples of English drama and were performed during the medieval period. The plays in this collection are religious in nature and depict biblical stories and themes such as the Nativity, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection. The book provides readers with a glimpse into the religious and cultural practices of medieval England and the development of English drama. It is a valuable resource for scholars, students of literature, and anyone interested in the history of English theatre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
