The Digby Plays is a collection of medieval English plays, compiled and edited by Frederick James Furnivall. The plays are believed to have been written in the 15th century and were performed by guilds in the town of Digby, Lincolnshire. The collection includes 14 plays, including the well-known Noah's Flood and The Killing of the Children. In addition to the plays, the book also includes an incomplete morality play called Wisdom Who Is Christ. This play explores the Christian concept of wisdom and its relationship to Christ. Furnivall's edition of The Digby Plays includes extensive notes and commentary on the plays, providing historical context and explaining the language and customs of the time. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of medieval literature and theater, as well as anyone interested in the history of English drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
