This long overdue anthology captures the soul of MacIntyre's dramatic canon

– its ethereal qualities, its extraordinary diversity, its emphasis on the poetic and on performance – in an extensive range of visual, journalistic

and scholarly contributions from writers, theatre practitioners.

This book presents an analysis of more than 30 plays written by Irish dramatists

and poets that are based on the tragedies of Sophocles, Euripides and Aeschylus.

that illuminates both the man and the work.

Victor Merriman's work on Irish theatre is in the vanguard

of a whole new paradigm in Irish theatre scholarship, one that is not content to

contemplate monuments of past or present achievement, but for which the theatre

is a lens that makes visible the hidden malaises in Irish society.

in the canon of modern Irish theatre.
