TIDNINGEN BOKEN 9-10 2002-2003 Genier, suputar, dramatiker och Nobelpristagare Inget litet land, och knappast något stort heller, kan stoltsera med så många litterära genier som Irland. Fyra av dem - W.B. Yeats, G.B. Shaw, Samuel Beckett och Seamus Heaney - fick Nobelpriset. Flera andra - inte minst James Joyce - var kvalificerade för det. Många var dessutom suputar, som gav Dublin öknamnet Publin. Brendan Behan satte sin skrivmaskin och sin pint of Guinness i ett hörn på puben McDaid´s. Patrick Kavanagh och Flann O´Brien hade liknande vanor. DUBLIN O liver Goldsmith (1730-74) var en slarvig bohem, men en duktig journalist essäist, romanförfattare, poet och dramatiker. Det av hans verk som kommit att tillhöra världslitteraturen - The Vicar of Wakefield Lantprästen i Wake-field ) - hade han nytta av på ett udda sätt. Hans vän, den berömde dr Samuel Johnson , tvingades sälja manuset för att Goldsmith skulle undgå att sättas på gäldstugan. En huslig idyll hos Oliver Goldsmiths prästfamilj i The Vicar of Wakefield . Konstnären Thomas Rowlandson skildrar här idyllen innan alla olyckorna brakar loss.

Home Stage Review: PICT stretches to present comedy 'She Stoops' Wednesday, July 17, 2002 By Christopher Rawson, Post-Gazette Drama Critic The comedy is aptly named. In "She Stoops to Conquer," the spirited Kate masquerades as a servant in order to bypass the social/sexual inhibitions of the eligible Mr. Marlow and liberate him from his inability to relate to "nice" women. "She Stoops to Conquer" Where: When: Through July 27; 8 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays; 2 p.m. Sundays and July 27. Tickets: I'm sure there's some fancy name for this psycho-sexual maladjustment, but Oliver Goldsmith (1730-74) is determined to treat it with indulgent comedy. So he gives Kate the powers of a Shakespearean comic heroine though she masquerades as only a maid, not a man and brings about a cure. There's enough transformation left over to free the second young couple and booby squire from the booby's booby mother. Her oddity also has a bit of a sexual tinge, but Goldsmith is too nice to harp on that.

Stuttering Oliver Goldsmith was born November 10, 1730. His undoubted talant as a writer won him a place in the leading circle of English literature the one that revolved about Samuel Johnson but his social ineptness and hesitant speech occasionally made him the butt of their jokes. Goldsmith wasn't a great thinker but he was a great writer. Today's poem, The Deserted Village , is an example. It does not deal with a real village; Auburn is supposed to be somewhere in England, but it has many characteristics of the Irish village where Goldsmith grew up. The premise of the poem is that the trend of consolidating small plots and village commons into large farms and private parks was ruining the nation. The land around and including the fictional Auburn had been bought by a rich man and joined to his private estate; the villagers who once made their living from this land have been forced to move to the cities there is no other place for them. The complaint has never been made in a more forceful way: Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay; Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade; A breath can make them, as a breath has made; But a bold peasantry, their country's pride, When once destroyed, can never be supplied.
