Описание: A thorough re-assessment of one of Ireland`s major playwrights, J.M. Synge (1871-1909). Using much previously-undiscussed archival material, the book takes each of Synge`s plays and prose works, tracing his journey from an early Romanticism to a later, more combative modernism.
Описание: The book draws extensively on Synge`s archive to demonstrate how pre-Christian residual culture informed not just how he wrote and staged pre-Christian beliefs, but also how he thought about an older, almost forgotten culture that Catholic Ireland desperately wanted to forget.

Описание: This revised edition of the play is published alongside commentary and notes by Christopher Collins, Assistant Professor of Drama at the University of Nottingham, UK.

Described by J.M. Synge as "a comedy, an extravaganza, made to use", The Playboy of the Western World is one of the most iconic plays to have come out of Ireland in the 20th century and is today recognised as a staple of the dramatic canon. It is published as a new Student Edition, which offers a 21st century lens on a play over 100 years old.
When it was first performed in 1907 at Dublin's Abbey Theatre, Synge's play provoked uproar and was interrupted more than once by the police. Today, we recognise its importance in making Irish drama the force it became in the early 20th century.
Описание: J M Synge was one of the key dramatists in the flourishing world of Irish literature at the turn of the century. This volume offers all of Synge`s plays, which range from racy comedy to stark tragedy, all sharing a memorable lyricism. The introduction sets Synge`s work in the context of the Irish literary movement, with special attention to his role as one of the founders of the Abbey Theatre and his work alongside W. B. Yeats and Lady Gregory. Includes: Riders to the Sea; The Shadow of the Glen; The Tinker`s Wedding; The Well of the Saints; The Play of the Western World; Deirdre of the Sorrows

Historian M. B. Synge narrates how naval power grew in importance from the 1700s onward, playing a decisive role in the victories of several nations and their Empires.
The advancing technology of shipping made their use in warfare evermore plausible. Ships could maneuver faster, were better armed with decks devoted to cannon, while signals between vessels allowed an admiral or commander to better coordinate his fleet. In narrating the histories of several countries, Synge demonstrates how ships became both emblematic and instrumental of power - the Boston tea party, whereby ships were emptied of their cargo in protests against British taxation, was a pivotal event leading to the establishment of the USA.
Prior to the late 1700s, ships were mainly viewed in the context of exploration, harassment or conquest of coastal settlements, or piracies, with large-scale successes for militaries at sea only rarely seen. Yet the stunning victories of Admiral Nelson of England placed naval power at the forefront, while the establishment of prospering colonies in places as far-flung as Australia made the economic importance of navies obvious. In describing a series of battles and events, M. B. Synge builds his common theme: that navies would drive change in the world like never before.
