I really don't think my forwarding this one requires any explanation! A. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 30 Mar 1995 11:22:01 -0400 From:[log in to unmask] To: Multiple recipients of list PERFORM <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Reprints of _Comparative Drama_ Several special issues of _Comparative Drama_ have been reprinted for individuals and non-subscribers by Medieval Institute Publications. These are: _Iconographic and Comparative Studies in Medieval Drama_, which contains essays originally presented at the Lancaster SITM Colloquium (Introduciton by Meg Twycross). _Medieval Drama on the Continent of Europe_ -- Nine scholarly studies, including Hansjurgen Linke's fine piece surveying medieval German liturgical drama and recent research in it, Steve Wright's article on an early Scandinavian play, Nat Brockett's discovery of a previously unknown _Ordo Prophetarum_ at Zagreb, Bob Potter's piece on "Illegal Immigration of Medieval Drama to California," etc., etc. _Early and Traditional Drama: Africa, Asia, and the New World_ contains Max Harris' paper on folk dramatizations in New Mexico of the Conquest/Conversion, Milla Riggio's paper on the Iranian Passion Play, Mikkiko Ishii's discussion of Noh drama, and studies of African traditional drama, Kathakali dance drama, Indonesian puppet theater, and Peking Opera. It is aimed at everyone interested in early drama. And, coming soon, _Emblem, Iconography, and Drama_, containing articles by Chris Wortham on _Antony and Cleopatra_, Judith Dundas on Cupid and Death, Peggy Munoz Simonds on music in _The Tempest_, Frederick Kiefer on _LLL_, Robert C. Evans on Ben Jonson, Lisa Hopkins on John Ford, Elizabeth Truax on emblematic pictures, and Elizabeth K. Hill on Quarles as a dramatist. Each of the above are available for $12 except _Iconogr Publications, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI 49008. Add $3 for the first book, and $.50 for each subsequent book, for postage and handling. Visa and Mastercard are accepted. These books have been issued in response to the encouragement of many persons in early drama, and we are not sure how widely they are known out in the field; hence we would be grateful if recipients of the PERFORM list would help to spread the word about them. Many thanks. Clifford Davidson
