Abstract: In 1800 entries this valuable reference work covers texts and records of dramatic activity for about 400 sites in Britain from Roman times to 1558. Grouped in sections - texts listed chronologically; Records of England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Other, classified by county, site, and date; and doubtful texts and records - the entries summarize the contents of each record and give bibliographic information. Professor Lancashire presents a comprehensive survey of almost every type of literary and historical record, document, and work: civic, church, guild, monastic, and royal court minutes and financial accounts; national records - Chancery, Parliament, Privy Council, Exchequer; royal proclamations; wills; local court rolls; jest-books, poems, prose treatises, sermons; archaeological remains, artifacts, illustrations. He brings together works in several normally unrelated fields: Roman theatre in Britain; medieval drama as such, including the Corpus Christi play and the moral play; court revels of the Tudors, and of their predecessors in England and Scotland; and finally Latin and Greek drama as played in Oxford and Cambridge colleges. An introduction outlines the history of early drama in Britain. Appendixes include indexes of about 335 towns or patrons with travelling players, complete with rough itineraries; about 180 playwrights; and about 320 playing places and buildings. There are illustrations, four maps, and a large general subject and name index.

Firenze Olschki 2023, cm.17x 24, pp.IV,140, brossura. Collana Biblioteca storica toscana. Serie I, vol. 83. Ripercorrendo le vie del commercio europeo tra Quattro e Cinquecento, il volume indaga la straordinaria fortuna del vetro veneziano nel contesto fiorentino, in relazione alla quale sono stati ritrovati e analizzati circa un centinaio di documenti: dalla circolazione tra i privati all’apprezzamento alla corte dei Medici, attraverso le fonti dirette il testo offre uno spaccato interessante su uno dei prodotti artigianali più apprezzati in epoca rinascimentale, cioè il vetro “cristallino” e la sua sempre più raffinata elaborazione artistica.
