    Extractions: JOHN MILLINGTON SYNGE This document was originally published in Minute History of the Drama Purchase Plays by John Millington Synge B IOGRAPHICALLY the most remarkable feature of Synge's career was its brevity. In the six years which elapsed between 1903, when In the Shadow of the Glen was produced, to 1909, when he died, he rose from absolute obscurity to world fame, and provided us with six plays on which his reputation must rest." [ Following the completion, or perhaps we should say, the beginning, of his education at Trinity College, Dublin, John Millington Synge set out to see the world. On foot he travelled through Germany, Italy and France, absorbing the very essence of them through the lives, legends and literature of their people. It was in 1899 in a Parisian attic that W.B. Yeats discovered him. With the unselfish insight that is not one of the least of Yeat's claims to distinction, he realized that here was a real genius being wasted on various kinds of literary hackwork. He persuaded Synge to return to Ireland and devote that genius to the themes of Irish life and the needs of the recently initiated Irish theater movement. For some time after his return Synge spent his time renewing his kinship with Ireland, sensing the life and belief of its peasantry. Especially was he interested in those islands just off the west coast, and his famous one-act play

    Extractions: Home Ancient Theatre Medieval Theatre 16th Century ... Email Us JOHN MILLINGTON SYNGE (1871-1909) B ORN in Dublin in 1871, Synge studied music before going to Paris to write. There he was saved for his native ireland by William Butler Yeats in 1899 and persuaded that he must write about his own land. He went off on a second trip to the isolated Aran Islands, where he studied the local dialects, characters, and folklore. He began to write plays of peasant life, employing the natural speech which he had learned. His first play, In the Shadow of the Glen , was performed in 1903 by the Irish National Theatre, of which Yeats and Lady Gregory were co-founders. In 1904, Synge's brief peasant tragedy, Riders to the Sea , was staged at this company's new home, the Abbey Theatre, and Synge became the Abbey's literary adviser. Other folk plays followed, including his comedy about a mock-hero, The Playboy of the Western World (1907), which caused patriots to riot at the theatre. Synge died in 1909.

    Extractions: John Millington Synge Synge was born near Dublin in 1871 and died in 1909. He received his degree from Trinity College, Dublin, then went to Germany to study music and later to Paris, where he lived for several years working at literary criticism. Here, he met a compatriot, William Butler Yeats, who persuaded Synge to live for a while in the Aran Islands and then return to Dublin and devote himself to creative work. The Aran Islands (1907) is the journal of Synge's retreat among these primitive people. The plays of Irish peasant life on which his fame rests were written in the last six years of his life. The first two one-act plays, In the Shadow of the Glen , (1903), a comedy, and Riders to the Sea (1904), considered one of the finest tragedies ever written, were produced by the Irish National Theatre Society. This group, with Synge, Yeats and Lady Gregory as co-directors, organized in 1904 the famous Abbey Theatre. Two comedies, The Well of the Saints (1905) and The Playboy of the Western World (1907), were presented by the Abbey players. The latter play created a furor of resentment among Irish patriots stung by Synge's bitter humor.

    Extractions: RIDERS TO THE SEA A synopsis of the play by John Millington Synge This document was originally published in Minute History of the Drama Purchase Plays by John Millington Synge A FTER nine days of constant grieving for her missing son, Michael, who, she feels certain, has been drowned, old Maurya has fallen into a fitful sleep. Her daughter, Cathleen, is busy with household tasks, when another daughter, Nora, slips quietly into the kitchen with a bundle given her by the young priest. It contains part of the clothes taken from the body of a drowned man far in the north. They have been sent to Maurya's cottage with a view to possible identification. As Maurya shows signs of waking the girls hide the bundle until sometime when they shall be alone. Maurya's grieving for Michael is now coupled with fear of losing Bartley, her only remaining son. Five sons and a husband she has already lost to the sea. Will that insatiable tyrant insist on taking her sixth. The priest says not. But now Bartley insists that he will cross to the mainland this very day, in spite of winds and high seas, to dispose of a horse at the fair. In a fit of pique at this only remaining son for not listening to her pleas, Maurya lets him go without her blessing. The girls persuade her to intercept him with the lunch they had forgotten to give him and so to make opportunity for that blessing a mother should have given.

    Extractions: D ramaturgo irlandés, líder del renacimiento literario de su país. De familia angloirlandesa, nació en Rathfarnham (hoy parte de Dublín) y estudió en el Trinity College de Dublín. En 1896 conoció en París a W. B. Yeats, que le pidió con insistencia que volviese a Irlanda. Después de trabajar como crítico literario en París durante varios años, regresó en 1898 para estudiar la vida y las costumbres de su pueblo y unirse al movimiento en favor del renacimiento de la lengua irlandesa y de las leyendas locales. Sus dos primeras obras de teatro, ambas inspiradas en la vida campesina de su país, La sombra del valle y Jinetes hacia el mar , se estrenaron en 1903 y 1904, respectivamente, en el nuevo Irish National Theatre Society, que se convertiría en el Abbey Theatre en 1904. La representación de su obra maestra, la comedia El saltimbanqui del mundo occidental , en 1907, originó un gran escándalo; los dublineses tomaron como un insulto la forma cómica y mordaz con que se refería a la afición de los irlandeses a presumir y su tendencia a exaltar a quienes desacatan abiertamente la ley. A pesar de todo, la obra se convirtió en un clásico y en la piedra angular del repertorio del Abbey Theatre. Además de la obra El manantial de los santos (1905), escribió un libro de ensayos titulado
