Folklore in Elizabethan Drama by John Crow is a comprehensive study of the use of folklore in the plays of the Elizabethan era. The book explores the ways in which playwrights of the time incorporated traditional beliefs, legends, and customs into their works, and how these elements contributed to the overall meaning and impact of the plays. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including ballads, popular tales, and historical records, Crow examines the use of folklore in a variety of genres, including tragedy, comedy, and history plays. He also considers the ways in which folklore was used to comment on contemporary political and social issues, and to reflect the changing attitudes and values of Elizabethan society. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of English drama, folklore, or cultural studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
