The volume presents the papers delivered to an international conference on late medieval carnival plays (Blaubeuren 2007). Representatives from German, French and Dutch Studies, together with theatre and cultural historians examine carnival plays from the following perspectives: play topics and municipal politics, performance and reception, relations with sacred drama, with literary and local traditions and customs, and in addition, issues around editing and commentary, together with comparative literary aspects.
