초록
As a translation of the Dutch play Elckerlijc, Everyman follows the tradition of religious themes and dramatic motifs in the liturgy of the medieval church. The religious features of the morality drama, such as chastity, temptation, repentance, and salvation, are reproduced in Everyman. The play dramatizes Catholic teachings centered on the sacraments and uses biblical texts and doctrines for didactic purposes to share a Christian worldview through a pilgrimage for Everyman’s final journey. Everyman teaches that by relying on grace and doing good deeds in a state of grace, souls can be saved from the sins of the world at the moment of death. This study briefly examines the scope of religious thought at the time in relation to the dramatic purposes and considers how Everyman reflects and reveals the religious discourse of that time. In particular, this study investigates the spiritual self-awareness of the protagonist regarding death and salvation and the diversity of ways in which medieval Catholic doctrine and moral norms operate within religious practices in the final pilgrimage. It also explores the didactic strategy and narratives related to allegorical figures in the religious context of the Middle Ages in England before and after the Reformation.
Abstract
As a translation of the Dutch play Elckerlijc, Everyman follows the tradition of religious themes and dramatic motifs in the liturgy of the medieval church. The religious features of the morality drama, such as chastity, temptation, repentance, and salvation, are reproduced in Everyman. The play dramatizes Catholic teachings centered on the sacraments and uses biblical texts and doctrines for didactic purposes to share a Christian worldview through a pilgrimage for Everyman’s final journey. Everyman teaches that by relying on grace and doing good deeds in a state of grace, souls can be saved from the sins of the world at the moment of death. This study briefly examines the scope of religious thought at the time in relation to the dramatic purposes and considers how Everyman reflects and reveals the religious discourse of that time. In particular, this study investigates the spiritual self-awareness of the protagonist regarding death and salvation and the diversity of ways in which medieval Catholic doctrine and moral norms operate within religious practices in the final pilgrimage. It also explores the didactic strategy and narratives related to allegorical figures in the religious context of the Middle Ages in England before and after the Reformation.
