A Rosary of Mystery Plays is a book that contains fifteen plays selected from the York Cycle of Mysteries, which were originally performed by the crafts on the day of Corpus Christi. The book is written by Margaret S. Mooney and presents a collection of medieval plays that were performed in York, England during the Middle Ages. The plays are presented in a format that resembles a rosary, with each play representing a bead on the rosary. The book provides a glimpse into the religious and cultural practices of medieval England, and the plays offer a unique perspective on the stories of the Bible. The plays are written in Middle English, but the book provides modern translations for readers who may not be familiar with the language. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval literature and drama, as well as anyone interested in the history of religious practices and cultural traditions in medieval England.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.
