By:Leonard Goldstein
Published on 2004 by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press

This volume demonstrates that the tenth-century liturgical play results from the rapid integration of feudalism. Christians experienced the contradiction between the Church that offered salvation in the Eucharist and the Church that through its increasingly large holdings of property in land exploited large numbers of peasants. The resulting dimunition of faith led the clergy to attempt to revitalize it. promising salvation, the ending of the miseries of this life. The trope was enacted as a ritual/play, expressing in the announcement of the Resurrection the promise of the Kingdom of Christ; however, as Goldstein boldly argues, in the enactment of the trope, the antagonism of the developing (private) property relation was represented through the form, a play. The play duplicates the communalism/property contradiction. The apprehended relations of property have intruded upon a part of the Mass and sublated it into something new, a drama.
