Setting
  • Like the characters, the setting is allegorical
    God speaks from heaven, then sends Death to earth
    to seek Everyman, who ascends to heaven in a
    final scene. Figuratively, the setting is
    anywhere on earth.

Everyman
  • is a late 15th-century English morality play.
  • The play is the allegorical accounting of the
    life of Everyman, who represents all mankind.
  • In the course of the action, Everyman tries to
    convince other characters to accompany him in the
    hope of improving his account.

5
Mortality
  • The play nearest the mystery in manner of
    production, costumes, and general tone was the
    morality, which might almost be classed as a
    religious play. In the age-long attempt to
    portray the dual nature of Man, in whom good and
    evil perpetually fight for supremacy, the
    playwrights lighted on the allegorical method.
  • There are two other English moralities, one
    titled Spirit, Will and Understanding, the other
    Humanity.

  • All the characters are also allegorical, each
    personifying an abstract idea such as Fellowship,
    (material) Goods, and Knowledge.
  • The conflict between good and evil is dramatized
    by the interactions between characters.

8
  • Everyman examines the question of Christian
    salvation by use of allegorical characters, and
    what Man must do to attain it. The premise is
    that the good and evil deeds of one's life will
    be tallied by God after death, as in a ledger
    book.

DEATH
10
  • Nothing is known of the author, and although the
    play was apparently produced with some frequency
    in the seventy-five years following its nothing
    is known of the author, and although the play was
    apparently produced with some frequency in the
    seventy-five years following its composition, no
    production records survive.

11
  • When Everyman is summoned by Death, he can
    persuade none of his friendsBeauty, Kindred,
    Worldly Goodsto go with him, except Good Deeds.
    This allegory has been used as the basis of plays
    by later writers and has remained popular in
    modern times.
