Resumen o Introducción
Händel, Heine, Lord Byron, Rembrandt, Johnny Cash, Rossini. They all used it as an inspiration – the biblical story of unrighteous King Belshazzar and the writing on the wall. However, there are even older usages of this dramatic topic of the Old Testament. One of it is the liturgical drama Ludus Danielis (The Play of Daniel) from Beauvais. This essay will attempt to review the main literature centered on Ludus Danielis Belouacensis to gain an understanding of the importance of this liturgical drama considering particularly the claim to be a “medieval opera”. Furthermore it will give special attention to the problem of the dating with drawing Hilarius Historia de Daniel Representanda into account.
