dc.description.abstract |
This dissertation falls in line with work produced during
the past fifteen years or so, aimed at improving our appreciation
of late medieval/early Tudor English Drama. The approach is based
especially on looking at the rapport likely to be achieved
between audience and players (and via the players, with the
playwrights), in actual performance.
Attention is given to the permanent modes of human thought,
that are unaffected by the ephemeralities of a particular period;
attention is therefore drawn to the traps that may mislead the
unwary twentieth-century critic, and some new insights are
offered into the purposes of the playwrights.
Several cycle plays are treated, together with two of the
moralities and two interludes. The point is made that these
playwrights showed a considerable mastery of the possibilities
inherent in drama, as is demonstrated by the provision for
achieving rapport with the audience |

The reformed churches have theological and musicological criteria for their hymns, which,
however, are not always unambiguous.
After the introduction of the Jeugsangbundel (1984) an informal song, with informal
accompaniment, entered the worship and forms a prominent part of the singing in Dutch
Reformed Churches today. Some congregations compile their own volumes of songs. This
study set out to identify these congregations by means of a questionnaire and evaluate the
songs. Other relevant information was also required from congregations.
21 % of the respondent congregations sing unapproved songs. They have a larger percentage of
young people than those singing official songs. Congregations prefer a balance of formal and
informal hymns and both are sung with equal enthusiasm. The melody is the strongest
characteristic of the informal song and edification the strongest of the formal hymn.
The evaluation, however, shows that a considerable number of songs do not meet the required
standard |
