Selected Short Stories of Padraic Colum: Irish Studies

Autor Padraic Colum, Sanford Sternlicht
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 1985

Padraic Colum (1881-1972) was in the forefront of the Irish Literary revival along with William Butler Yeats, Lady Gregory, George Moore, AE (George Russell), and John Millington Synge. At the age of twenty-three, he was a founding father of the Abbey Players, and he was recognized as one of the most talented young writers of drama, poetry, and short fiction. Unfortunately, Colum quarreled with Yeats and Lady Gregory, and since he could not earn a living in Dublin by writing alone, he left for America.

Colum's contributions to Irish letters is unique, because he alone of the early giants of the Irish Literary Revival was Roman Catholic, peasant born, and country bred. His literary themes are tributes to the indomitable Irish spirit, the natural nobility of the Irish peasant, the ancient folk customs of the countryside, and the poetic beauty of Irish English.
