It focuses on some texts of Easter ceremonies and plays of the Visitatio sepulchri type, as well as Easter Czech Latin plays of the Three Mary type, The Ressurection Play from the Clementinum Codex and The Play of Merry [sic] Magdalene. The author's argument focuses primarily on considerations of stage (or performance) space as it appears in surviving dramatic texts and rubrics. According to the methodology propounded by the author it appears that the interpretation of stage space must be based on combined analysis of rubrics, dramatic texts and generic knowledge relating to the architectural environments in which medieval drama took place, and at the same time references to the dramatic (or mimetic) space implied in both the main texts and their descriptive rubrics needs to be considered.
