  • The Origins and Development of English Folk Plays
    National Centre for English Cultural Tradition University of Sheffield THE ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLISH FOLK PLAYS Volume 1 Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Ph.D. Peter Thomas Millington May 2002 ABSTRACT This thesis concerns those English folk plays whose plots are centred on the quack doctor character. Earlier researchers proposed three possible origins for these plays: a non-specific mystery play from the time of the crusades, some pre- Christian fertility ritual, and primitive shamanism. All three proposals were based on over-general comparisons, and relied on the key assumption that a continuous history can be traced back from before modern plays to the relevant era. However, in contrast with other customs, no evidence can be found for these plays before the 18th century, despite diligent searching. These theories are therefore disproved. Instead, it is proposed that the plays were attached in the early to mid 18th century to existing house-visiting customs. These were probably the source of the non-representational costumes that are sometimes worn. There is also evidence for the influence of the conventions of the English Harlequinade. The provenance of the scripts is unknown, but similarities between them suggest they ultimately derived from a single proto-text. A full-text database of 181 texts and fragments was built for investigation using cluster analysis, distribution mapping and other computerised techniques, some of which are novel. The cluster analysis has generated a new classification for the play texts that both confirms and extends the established typology. Comparison of the attributes of the clusters, aided by distribution mapping, has resulted in a putative genealogy for the plays that is presented for discussion.

  • The Roles of Women in Early English Folk Drama
    ROLES OF WOMEN IN EARLY ENGLISH FOLK DRAMA THE ROLES OF WOMEN IN EARLY ENGLISH FOLK DRAMA By KIMBERLEY MAE YATES, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University (c) Copyright by Kimberley Mae Yates Defence: September 25, 1990 MASTER OF ARTS (1990) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, ontario TITLE: The Roles of Women in Early English Folk Drama AUTHOR: Kimberley Mae Yates, B.A(McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Anne Savage NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 139 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to explore the ways in which women are portrayed in folk drama. The thesis divides into two main sections. In the first, the English mummer's plays of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries are analyzed on an anthropological model in order to determine the symbolic functions of the man-dressed-as-woman. In the second, the historical development of the Maid Marian character of the Robin Hood legend highlights the differences between folk drama and the legitimate stage. The ideas of Mikhail Bahktin provide the link in these materials. iii I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Anne Savage for her time and encouragement, both of which helped to keep me working. I would also like to thank Dr. Laurel Braswell-Means for the inspiration for this thesis. Finally, many thanks to my husband Dan for his patience and understanding. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER ONE Introduction, Background and Analogies · .... 1 CHAPTER TWO The Three Forms of Mummers' Plays · .. 18 CHAPTER THREE The Background of the Robin Hood Tradition • ••• 43 CHAPTER FOUR Robin Hood in Medieval Flok Drama • ••• 59 CHAPTER FIVE Social Implications and Later Developments • ••• 69 CHAPTER SIX Conclusions • ••• 82 APPENDIX ONE Greenodd Hero Combat Play • ••• 84 APPENDIX TWO Bellerby Sword Dance • •.

  • English Folk Traditions and Changing Perceptions About Black People in England
    Trish Bater 080207052 ‘Blacking Up’: English Folk Traditions and Changing Perceptions about Black People in England Submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy by Patricia Bater National Centre for English Cultural Tradition March 2013 This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution- NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License. To view a copy of this license, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ or send a letter to Creative Commons, 444 Castro Street, Suite 900, Mountain View, California, 94041, USA. Trish Bater 080207052 2 Abstract This thesis investigates the custom of white people blacking their faces and its continuation at a time when society is increasingly aware of accusations of racism. To provide a context, an overview of the long history of black people in England is offered, and issues about black stereotypes, including how ‘blackness’ has been perceived and represented, are considered. The historical use of blackface in England in various situations, including entertainment, social disorder, and tradition, is described in some detail. It is found that nowadays the practice has largely been rejected, but continues in folk activities, notably in some dance styles and in the performance of traditional (folk) drama. Research conducted through participant observation, interview, case study, and examination of web-based resources, drawing on my long familiarity with the folk world, found that participants overwhelmingly believe that blackface is a part of the tradition they are following and is connected to its past use as a disguise. However, although all are aware of the sensitivity of the subject, some performers are fiercely defensive of blackface, while others now question its application and amend their ‘disguise’ in different ways.

    Old English Customs THE FAVERSHAM MOOT HORN. This horn served for the calling of local assemblies at Faversham, Kent, circa 1300. Old Snglish Customs Sxtant at the Present Time An Account of Local Observances^ Festival Customs^ and (Ancient Ceremonies yet Surviving in Great Britain By T. H. T)itchfield, 3U.A., F.S.A. London cK 1896 \v PREFACE I HE object of this work is to describe all the old customs which still linger on in the obscure nooks and corners of our native land, or which have survived the march of progress in our busy city's life. There are many books which treat of ancient customs, and repeat again the stories told by Brand, Hone, and other historians and as far antiquaries ; but, as we are aware, there is no book describing the actual folk-customs yet extant, which may be witnessed to-day by the folk-lorist and lover of rural manners. We have endeavoured to supply this want, and to record only those customs which time has spared. Undoubtedly the decay has been rapid. Many customs have vanished, quietly dying out without giving a sign. The present generation has witnessed the extinc- tion of many observances which our fathers practised and revered, and doubtless the v 286064 Preface progress of decay will continue. We have entered upon a diminished inheritance. Still it is surprising to find how much has been left how the race ; tenaciously English clings to that which habit and usage have estab- lished how ancient customs hold in ; sway the palace, the parliament, the army, the law courts, amongst educated people as well as unlearned rustics cluster ; how they around our social institutions, are enshrined in reli- and are law gious ceremonial, preserved by ; how carefully they have been guarded through the many ages of their existence, and how deeply rooted they are in the affections of the English people.

  • Paschal Troparion
    Paschal troparion From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Christ anesti" redirects here. For the greeting, see Paschal greeting. The Paschal troparion or Christos anesti (Greek: Χριστὸς ἀνέστη) is the characteristic hymn for the celebration of Pascha (Easter) in the Eastern Orthodox Church and those Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine Rite. Like most troparia it is a brief stanza often used as a refrain between the verses of a Psalm, but is also used on its own. Its authorship is unknown. It is nominally sung in Tone Five, but often is sung in special melodies not connected with the Octoechos. It is often chanted thrice (three times in succession). [edit] Usage The troparion is first sung during the Paschal Vigil at the end of the procession around the church which takes place at the beginning of Matins. When all are gathered before the church's closed front door, the clergy and faithful take turns chanting the troparion, and then it is used as a refrain to a selection of verses from Psalms 67 and 117 (this is the Septuagint numbering; the KJV numbering is 68 and 118): Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; let those who hate Him flee from before His face (Ps. 67:1) As smoke vanishes, so let them vanish; as wax melts before the fire (Ps. 67:2a) So the sinners will perish before the face of God; but let the righteous be glad (Ps. 67:2b) This is the day which the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.
