Everyman
"Everyman" is a late 15th-century morality play that explores the theme of mortality and the human condition. The story follows the character Everyman, who represents all of humanity, as he embarks on a journey to prepare for his final judgment. He seeks companionship and support from various allegorical figures, such as Good Deeds, Knowledge, and Death.
The play emphasizes the importance of living a virtuous life and the inevitability of death. It serves as a reminder that material wealth and earthly pleasures cannot accompany one in the afterlife, highlighting the significance of spiritual readiness and moral integrity.
