The Controversy Between The Puritans And The Stage by Elbert N. S. Thompson is a historical analysis of the conflict between Puritanism and theater in England during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book explores the Puritan belief that theater was a sinful and immoral form of entertainment, and the response of the theater industry to these accusations. Thompson examines the arguments put forth by both sides, as well as the political and social context in which the controversy took place. The book also delves into the impact this debate had on the development of English theater and the wider cultural landscape of the time. Overall, The Controversy Between The Puritans And The Stage offers a fascinating insight into a key moment in English history and the clash between religious ideology and artistic expression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
