Description

Magnyfycence: A Moral Play (1906) is a play written by John Skelton, an English poet and playwright from the 16th century. The play is a morality play, which means that it is intended to teach a moral lesson to its audience. The story follows the character of Magnyfycence, a wealthy and powerful man who is obsessed with his own status and reputation. He is surrounded by sycophants who flatter him and encourage his vanity, but he is ultimately brought down by his own pride and arrogance. The play explores themes of morality, greed, and the dangers of excessive pride. It is written in a poetic style and includes allegorical characters such as Mischief, Folly, and Falsehood. Magnyfycence: A Moral Play is a classic example of a morality play and provides insight into the values and beliefs of the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
