Summary

"This is the first bilingual edition of a selection of plays from the fifteenth-century tradition of Florentine sacre rappresentazioni. These were plays produced by youth confraternities that elaborated biblical texts or saints' lives in ways that achieve a concentration of psychological realism that is frequently astonishing."--P. [4] of cover.
