Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes information on the most recent and youngest playwrights working today at the Abbey, Druid, and Lyric Theatres. Sanford Sternlicht discusses the important plays of all the playwrights included and the major themes of modern Irish drama. A Readers Guide to Modern Irish Drama provides an introduction to one of the great dramatic and theatrical traditions of Western culture. Professor Sanford Stemlicht wrote this book specifically for Syracuse University Press's Reader's Guides series. As one of only a handful of comprehensive contemporary studies of Irish drama, the book includes the most recent and youngest playwrights working today at the Abbey, Druid, and Lyric Theatres. Beginning with essays on twentieth-century Irish history, The Irish Literary Theatre, and the development of the Modem ,Irish Theatre in Dublin, Belfast, Galway and other cities, the guide presents biographies and bibliographies of more than twenty-five major twentieth-century Irish dramatists from Lady Gregory, Yeats, and Synge to O'Casey, Beckett, and Behan; from Friel and McGuinness to Marina Carr and Martin McDonagh. Most significantly, Sternlicht discusses the important plays of all the playwrights included, and the major themes of modem Irish drama-the struggle for independence, the cruelty of poverty, the pains of emigration and exile, the decline of the Anglo-Irish ascendency, the power of religion, the longing for land, and the familial and gender conflicts of a people in transition. Finally, a selected bibliography completes the study.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Modern Irish Theatre written by Nicholas Grene and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 952 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Modern Irish Theatre provides the single most comprehensive survey of the field to be found in a single volume. Drawing on more than forty contributors from around the world, the book addresses a full range of topics relating to modern Irish theatre from the late nineteenth-century to the most recent works of postdramatic devised theatre. Ireland has long had an importance in the world of theatre out of all proportion to the size of the country, and has been home to four Nobel Laureates (Yeats, Shaw, and Beckett; Seamus Heaney, while primarily a poet, also wrote for the stage). This collection begins with the influence of melodrama, and looks at arguably the first modern Irish playwright, Oscar Wilde, before moving into a series of considerations of the Abbey Theatre, and Irish modernism. Arranged chronologically, it explores areas such as women in theatre, Irish-language theatre, and alternative theatres, before reaching the major writers of more recent Irish theatre, including Brian Friel and Tom Murphy, and their successors. There are also individual chapters focusing on Beckett and Shaw, as well as a series of chapters looking at design, acting, and theatre architecture. The book concludes with an extended survey of the critical literature on the field. In each chapter, the author does not simply rehearse accepted wisdom; all of the contributors push the boundaries of their respective fields, so that each chapter is a significant contribution to scholarship in its own right.

Book excerpt: The development of contemporary drama in the 1980s into a depiction of a new Irish reality has contributed to a new Irish drama aesthetic, sparked originally by plays such as Hugh Leonard's Da and Stewart Parker's Spokesong. In this new book, Michael Etherton looks at the work of the most influential modern Irish dramatists to show how their work contributes to a radically different view of what constitutes 'Irish' and 'drama'.
