sottie

Japanese: sottie
sottie

...Religious drama based on Christian liturgy and stories can be found in Baroque plays, J. de Rotroux's Saint Geneste, Corneille's Polyuct, and two tragedies from the later years of Racine, but they disappeared until the appearance of P. Claudel at the end of the 19th century. In medieval Gothic cities, the performances of great sacred history plays often incorporated other contemporary stage expressions, such as fool plays (sottie, sotie), morality plays (moralité), and farce. In particular, the carnival-like anti-world of fool plays and the satirical comedic nature of farce, along with the influence of Italian and Spanish comedies, formed the undercurrent of 17th century comedy (such as "The Washing Tub," which became the kyogen adaptation of Iizawa Tadashi's "The Washing River" in Japan, and "Mr. Pierre Patrin").
