Synge and Irish Nationalism by Nelson Ritschel

A reassessment of the dramatic canon of Irish Renaissance poet, John Millington Synge. It argues that his plays, including "The Playboy of the Western World", are far more deeply rooted, thematically and aesthetically, in the ancient native literature than was previously believed.

NELSON O'CEALLAIGH RITSCHEL is Assistant Professor of Humanities at Massachusetts Maritime Academy. His essays have appeared in such journals as LIT: Literature, Interpretation, Theory and New Hibernia Review. His previous books include Productions of the Irish Theatre Movement, 1899-1916 (Greenwood, 2001).
