Abstract

"A Tretise of Miraclis Pleyinge," usually believed to have been written between 1380 and 1425, is the longest and most significant piece of dramatic criticism in Middle English. It reflects the hostility of Wycliffite (or Lollard) authors toward dramatic representation and related activity, especially religious drama.
