Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Interplay of Religion and Drama
The purpose OF this thesis is to show the re sults of an investigation made which has convinced the author that there has been and still is an inter play of drama and religion, whereby both have profit ed or suffered from the results of the influence each has had upon the other.
I would not have the reader think for a moment that I propose to prove the religious belief of any author, for with the exception of the primitive ih stinct to believe in some power or force by Which the universe came into existence, whether it be nature or Spirit or something still unconceived by the mind of man, I daresay many to whom I shall refer would deny having any religious belief; most certainly they would deny, and justly so, the assertion that they had an ideaof illustrating a religious truth in their dramas.
