Signifying God: Social Relation and Symbolic Act in the York Corpus Christi Plays,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
First staged as early as 1376, the York Corpus Christi plays were performed annually until the late 1500s and involved as much as a tenth of the city in multiple performances at a dozen or more locations. Signifying God shows how organizing the plays served as a political mechanism for regulating labor, and how theater and sacrament combined in them to do important theological work.
