4Everyman
- is a late 15th-century English morality play.

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.
5Mortality
- 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.

7- 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.
