Tags: Play.
Mankind is an English medieval morality play written c.1470. The play is a moral allegory about Mankind a representative of the human race and follows his fall into sin and his repentance. Its author is unknown; the manuscript is signed by a monk named Hyngham but he was probably only the scribe since some of the textual oddities are believed to derive from his miscopying of parts of the text because he was not familiar with it.
