On the whole, the Interludes show the constant necessity for
dramatic art to seek new forms of appeal and the marked tendency in
Renaissance art to assert its own autonomy.
To those, who know something of later dramatic achievement, the
Interludes may appear awkward in language and amateurish in structure. But
they were a series of innovations and experiment both interesting in themselves
and valuable in pointing the way for the Elizabethians. Taken along with the
Mysteries, Miracles, and Moralities, they help us to observe one of the most
interesting and continuous forms of evolution in the whole history of literature –
an evolution which, beginning with liturgical worship in mimetic or dialogue
form in the early ages of Christianity, can be traced up to the fullest
development of dramatic art in the early seventeenth century.
