"Everyman an English morality play of the 15th century probably a version of a Dutch play Elckerlyc. It achieves a beautiful simple solemnity in treating allegorically the theme of death and the fate of the human soul-of Everyman's soul as he tries to justify his time on earth.

It is generally regarded as the finest of the morality plays." Britannica Online revised and updated by J.E. Luebering.
