There's also David Bevington's MEDIEVAL DRAMA (1975). Amazon lists
it at $60 & says no date's been set for a reprint, but there's
always abebooks.com. for secondhand copies. It's a thorough anthology,
from the first tropes through early humanist drama, with the most
space given to the mysteries. The introductions are also excellent.
