Everyman
In literature and drama, the term everyman has come to mean an ordinary individual,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WordNet Search - 3.0 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Everyman - Definition and More From the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary )〕 with whom the audience or reader is supposed to be able to identify easily, and who is often placed in extraordinary circumstances. ==Description== The name derives from a 15th-century English morality play called ''Everyman''.〔 The contemporary everyman differs greatly from his (or her) medieval counterpart in many respects. While the medieval everyman was devoid of definite marks of individuality in order to create a universality in the moral message of the play, the contemporary storyteller may use an everyman for amoral, immoral, or demonstrative purposes.
