Add your own review!

Overview

"Mary of Nemmegen, a prose condensation in English of the Middle Dutch play Mariken van Nieumeghen, is an important example of the literature that was imported from Holland in the early part of the sixteenth century. It also may be compared to Everyman, described as a treatise ""in the manner of a moral play."" Mary of Nemmegen is an analogue of the Faustus story. As such, it is also a window on the obsession in its own time with the occult."
