Theatre and Residual Culture

The book draws extensively on Synge's archive to demonstrate how pre-Christian residual culture informed not just how he wrote and staged pre-Christian beliefs, but also how he thought about an older, almost forgotten culture that Catholic Ireland desperately wanted to forget.

Cartea se bazeaza pe arhiva Synge pentru a demonstra modul in care cultura reziduala pre-crestina a informat nu doar modul in care a scris si a pus in scena credintele precrestine, ci si modul in care s-a gandit la o cultura mai veche, aproape uitata, pe care Irlanda catolica a vrut cu disperare sa o uite.
