Petrus Vladeraccus. Tobias (1598)
Michiel Verweij
Petrus Vladeraccus. Tobias offers a text edition of this Latin school drama from 1598, staging the biblical history of Tobias. This edition is based upon the only preserved copy of the original print of 1598.
The actual text is preceded by an elaborate biography of Petrus van Vladeracken (1571-1618) and an analysis of the text and the problems he was confronted with while composing the play. The "Tobias" is the only play from the Old-Latin school of s'-Hertogenbosch to survive the ravages of time. It argues not only the survival of the schoolplay-tradition of the first half of the 16th century, but also the mentality in 's-Hertogenbosch around 1600, being a catholic and Spanish bastion versus the calvinistic Republic of the United Provinces.
