The Digby Mysteries is a collection of medieval English plays, edited and introduced by Frederick J. Furnivall. The collection includes four plays: Killing Of The Children, Conversion Of St. Paul, Mary Magdalene, and Christ�������s Burial And Resurrection. These plays were originally performed by guilds in the town of Digby, Lincolnshire, in the late 15th century. The plays are religious in nature and depict various events from the Bible, including the massacre of the innocents by King Herod, the conversion of Saul to Christianity, the story of Mary Magdalene, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The plays are written in Middle English and offer insight into the religious beliefs and cultural practices of medieval England. Furnivall's introduction provides historical context and analysis of the plays, making this book an important resource for scholars of medieval literature and drama.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.
