The Song for The Tinker's Wedding (The Night Before Larry was Stretched); VII: Select Bibliography; VIII: Notes on the Plays, Poems and Translations. ***'The new kind of dramatic poetry which Synge created was of tremendous significance in the Irish literary renaissance. It was first produced in an inspired collaboration with Yeats on the stage of the Irish Literary Theatre; a recent production of The Playboy of the Western World and the publication of Synge's poems have aroused a new interest in his works. ***This present edition contains all his plays and published poems. Each play is dealt with in a separate essay, where the author reveals Synge's continuous preference for the imaginative element in life, and fills in the background of local meanings, people and places. Each text has its own commentary and notes a longer, comprehensive essay, with examples showing Synge's technique in handling originals, includes his poems and translations. ***The editor is the Wilson Lecturer in Poetry and Drama at Cambridge, and is the Director of the Yeats International Summer School. He is an Anglo-Irishman familiar with Synge's country and people.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***First hardback reprint of the true first edition, complete in its original dustwrapper in extremely nice, clean bright condition. **Of interest to academics studying Irish Literature, J. M. Synge and W. B. Yeats. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
