Zusammenfassung: | Elisabeth Dutton focuses on how Reformation Protestant writers asserted the historicity of scriptural events.

Dutton argues that to encourage these audiences, these playwrights - specifically John Bale, John Foxe, and Nicholas Grimald - used the accessible, physical reality of props to thereby overcome the challenges of presenting a Protestant history. |
