Download or read book Brian Friel s Post Colonial Drama written by F. C. McGrath and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Friel is Ireland's most important living playwright, and this book places him in the new canon of postcolonial writers. Drawing on the theory and techniques of the major postcolonial critics, F. C. McGrath offers fresh interpretations of Friel's texts and of his place in the tradition of linguistic idealism in Irish literature. This idealism has dominated Ireland's still incomplete emergence from its colonial past. It appeals to Irish writers like Friel who, following in a line from Yeats, Synge, and O'Casey, challenge British culture with antirealistic, antimirnetic devices to create alternative worlds, histories, and new identities to escape stereotypes imposed by the colonizers. Friel grew up in Northern Ireland's Catholic minority and now lives in the Irish Republic. McGrath maintains that all Friel's work is marked by colonial and postcolonial structures. Like his predecessor Wilde, Friel mixes lies, facts, memories, and individual perception to create new myths and elevates blarney to a realm of aesthetic and philosophical distinction. An important, accessible, scholarly introduction, this book illustrates how Friel playfully subverts the English language and transcends British influence. Friel's reality is constructed from personal fiction, and it is his liberating response to oppression.

Download or read book Brian Friel Plays 3 written by Brian Friel and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third collection by Brian Friel contains two original works: Performances, which considers the relationship between the private life and public work of the composer Leos Janácek; and The Home Place, set in Ballybeg, Donegal, at the dawn of Home Rule. There are three masterful plays based on stories by Chekhov; and Friel's exquisite versions of Three Sisters and Uncle Vanya, of Ibsen's Hedda Gabler and of Turgenev's A Month in the Country. Performances 'A minor work the way Thomas Mann's Death in Venice or Beckett's Endgame is a minor work. Deceptively brisk and light in tone but taut and gravely pregnant with meaning... for Friel, life creates its own symbolism and poetry, and so it does in this play.' Sunday Times The Home Place 'A rich, allusive, densely layered play, which has echoes of Friel's masterly Translations while reminding one that he has spent much of his recent life adapting and translating Chekhov... Friel hauntingly conveys the pathos of exile and the delusion of ownership.' Guardian Hedda Gabler 'Across the gulf of the 20th century one great playwright is talking to another... neither a simple translation nor, as the official title has it, or a 'new version', but something altogether larger.' The Irish Times

Download or read book The Clown in Modern Anglo Irish Drama written by Elizabeth Hale Winkler and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1977 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clowns are far more vital in modern Anglo-Irish than in English drama. Age-old clown types can be recognized, and slapstick techniques recur time and again. But the functions of these modern clowns differ markedly according to the dramatic intentions of the author. Low comic entertainment, affirmation, contrast and satire are major functions of the clown from Boucicault to O'Casey. Although supposedly typical of the contemporary period, the «tragicomic», symbolic role found in Beckett proves to be an exception in Anglo-Irish drama.
