Joseph on stage: texts and performances of the biblical story of Joseph the patriarch (1500-1700)

This file contains two datasets. The first is a repertory of 118 texts of plays about the patriarch Joseph (Genesis 37; 39-50) from the period 1500-1700, with references to digital copies, editions, and/or locations in archives. The second assembles the data about performances and printings of Joseph plays as they can be gathered from these sources, and contains nearly 800 references to printings or performances of plays about Joseph. There is no geographical or linguistic limit: I have included all the plays in any language and from any region that I could find. The temporal cut-off point is the year 1700.  These data were gathered within the scope of the Dutch Research Council (NWO)–funded project ‘TransLatin: The Transnational Impact of Latin Drama from the Early Modern Netherlands.’ This project ran between 2020-2024 at the Huygens Institute for Dutch History and Culture, with Jan Bloemendal as PI, Dinah Wouters as postdoctoral researcher and Andrea Peverelli as PhD researcher. The data build on three previous studies on early modern drama about this biblical figure:  <ul> <li>Weilen, Alexander von, Der ägyptische Joseph im Drama des XVI. Jahrhundert: ein Beitrag zur vergleichenden Litteraturgeschichte (Wien: A. Hölder, 1887). – sixteenth century, with a focus on Germany</li> <li> Jean Lebeau, Salvator mundi: l’ “exemple” de Joseph dans le théâtre allemand au XVIe siècle (Nieuwkoop: B. de Graaf, 1977). – 1533 to 1625, focusing on the Low Countries and Germany, excluding Jesuit theatre </li> <li> Ruprecht Wimmer, Jesuitentheater: Didaktik und Fest: das Exemplum des ägyptischen Joseph auf den deutschen Bühnen der Gesellschaft Jesu (Frankfurt am Main: Klostermann, 1982). – sixteenth and seventeenth century, focus on Jesuit drama from German</li> </ul> I have gathered texts, summaries and data about performances of Joseph dramas between the end of the fifteenth century and 1700. I exclude dramas of which the story of Joseph is just a small part, for instance in Les mystères de la Procession de Lille, Le mistère du vieil testament, or the Heidelberger Passionsspiel. However, I do include translations and summaries from periochae (programme booklets with summaries). When one playwright has written two or three plays about Joseph, I include these separately. I have found 98 complete texts, including translations, and 15 summaries. The Latin plays form the biggest group, followed by German, Spanish, Dutch, Italian and French. <table> <tbody> <tr> <td> Language </td> <td> Texts </td> <td> Translations </td> <td> Summaries </td> <td> Total </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Latin </td> <td> 34 </td> <td>   </td> <td> 13 </td> <td> 47 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> German </td> <td> 18 </td> <td> 4 </td> <td> 3 </td> <td> 25 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Spanish </td> <td> 12 </td> <td>   </td> <td>   </td> <td> 12 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Dutch </td> <td> 7 </td> <td> 2 </td> <td> 2 </td> <td> 11 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Italian </td> <td> 9 </td> <td>   </td> <td>   </td> <td> 9 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> French </td> <td> 3 </td> <td> 2 </td> <td> 3 </td> <td> 8 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> English </td> <td> 1 </td> <td> 2 </td> <td>   </td> <td> 3 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Polish </td> <td> 1 </td> <td> 1 </td> <td>   </td> <td> 2 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Ladin </td> <td> 1 </td> <td>   </td> <td>   </td> <td> 1 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Swedish </td> <td> 1 </td> <td>   </td> <td>   </td> <td> 1 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Catalan </td> <td> 1 </td> <td>   </td> <td>   </td> <td> 1 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Total </td> <td> 87 </td> <td> 11 </td> <td> 20 </td> <td> 118 </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Figure 1. Total number of plays per language. The total of texts does not always equal the sum of totals per language because there is one bilingual Latin-Spanish play and one bilingual Latin-German summary. Moreover, note that the language of summaries is not necessarily the language in which the play was performed. These datasets are applied and analysed in the following articles and chapters by Dinah Wouters: <ul> <li>“Adaptations of a Biblical Story on Early Modern Stages: A Transregional and Multilingual Account of Joseph Plays (1500-1700)”, Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld Institutes [2025];</li> <li>"The Biblical History Play: Turning Seventeenth-Century Joseph Plays into Political Drama", Journal of the Bible and its Reception [2024];</li> <li>“The Jesuit Monopoly on Revenge in Joseph Plays: Morals, Justice, and Atonement,” in Revisiting Revenge Tragedy, ed.

Fig. 3. Proportion of dead (A) and diapaused (B) Spathius galinae by stage at time of deployment, and overwintering microhabitat. Fate was determined by dis- secting all logs once emergence was complete. Letters of the same type and case within the same subfigure indicate significance when data are considered by stage alone (P <0.05).

Fig. 2. Deployment jar for logs containing emerald ash borer larvae parasitized by Spathius galinae. Logs were inserted in floral foam in 3.8 L polyethylene terephthalate jar with 2 mesh cutouts for ventilation and excess water drain- age. The jar was attached to the tree by resting the bottom of the jar on 2 nails hammered into the tree while a length of wire wrapped around the 2 nails on either side of the jar. Another wire looped around the neck of the jar and was fastened to the nail at the top. Water was added to the jars as needed to ensure adequate hydration of the logs and larvae.
