Mystere dou jour dou jugement

le pendu

Here's an interesting site with lots of familiar characters:

http://www.byu.edu/~hurlbut/dscriptorium/jugement/jugement.html

"The manuscript of the 14th-century mystery play 'The Day of Judgment,' includes roles for 94 characters, 89 miniatures depicting the action of the play and three neumed musical pieces."

make sure you scroll down after reading the intro to see the images. Unfortunately, not all of them are available.. still, lots to see and enjoy.

I like the sense of progression you get from this.. the story. It feels similar to the processions that we hear about proposed for tarot origins, but what a great story this one is.

Wish I could read French.
