초록

The purpose of this essay is to bring critical attention to the fact that Croxton Play of the Sacrament is an exploration on Christian materiality. More widely known as a didactic play that expounds the truth of transubstantiation and also as an anti-semitic play about host desecration, this play, I argue, participates in an important theological and ecclesiological discussion about the ontological status and power of holy matter as material. The eucharistic miracle was in the late Middle Ages was at once a welcome opportunity to strengthen popular devotion and a cause for deep anxiety on the part of theologians and church leaders. The ambiguous, awkward, and uncomfortable turn of events in the last part of the play including the measures the bishop takes in his handling of the eucharistic miracle suggest that this play is caught in the paradox of materiality that is not God but reveals God.

Abstract

The eucharistic miracle was in the late Middle Ages was at once a welcome opportunity to strengthen popular devotion and a cause for deep anxiety on the part of theologians and church leaders. The ambiguous, awkward, and uncomfortable turn of events in the last part of the play including the measures the bishop takes in his handling of the eucharistic miracle suggest that this play is caught in the paradox of materiality that is not God but reveals God.
