He travels to France, Germany and Italy observing and meditating and coming then back to Paris where in 1897 he meets the poet William Butler Yeats . Synge shows to the poet some of his works about the French literature but Yeats finds them insufficient; but having immediately understood the great abilities and possibility of this young talent he exhorts him to leave Paris to go to live for some time in the Aran islands, off the Galway bay, in order to learn habits, traditions and language of the Gaelic people.

Hans första långa pjäs var tragedin Riders of the Sea ( Ritten till havet) och skrevs 1905. I sitt stora mästerverk The Playboy of the Western World (Hjälten på den gröna ön) skriven 1907, där huvudpersonen Christy Mahon lyckas föra en hel liten by i Mayo bakom ljuset med sitt vältaliga struntprat, skildrar Synge den irländska landsbygden som han lärt känna så väl ,genom sina vistelser på ön Aran ( som beskrivs i boken The Aran Islands 1907). Hjälten på den gröna ön mottogs med bråk och upplopp på Abbey Theatre, för att publiken ansåg att Synge med sin pjäs vanärat det irländska folket. Synge hade 1906 blivit chef för denna teater, där hans sista pjäs, Deirdre of the Sorrows, framfördes 1910. tillbaka

   Extractions: Born in 1871 in Ireland, John Millington Synge is one of the best known playwrights of Ireland. At the age of 19 he chose to study the violin and went abroad to Germany, Italy, and France. While in France Synge decided to alter the path of his career and became a literary critic. After a meeting with William Butler Yeats in 1891, Synge chose to travel the countryside of Ireland in search of Irish folklore. He took all that he learned from the people of Ireland and turned it into a number of plays. Most noteworthy of his plays is The Playboy of the Western World which was greeted on the stage of the Abbey Theater by an offended crowd that ended up starting a riot. Having been of ill-health for most of his life, Synge's health deteriorated rapidly until his death in 1909. Famous Works: The Playboy of the Western World

Literary historians have explained the townsfolk¡¦s sympathy with the deed as being the empathy of an oppressed people with anyone who rebelled against authority. The audience of the play saw it as a representation of reality rather than a work of art. II. Characteristics of the play The play is not merely a story of young innocence and love but of the mentality and actions of an entire community. The play is said to be a play about audience response (Smith xx). By presenting the three father figures in the play, Synge presents a comic but degrading form of Irish institution that shapes the life of most Irishmen. Old Mahon is an individual with scant regard for the citizens (Bowen 72).

Finding himself unequipped for a life in music, Synge left Germany for Paris and spent several years there as a literary critic. A meeting with W. B. Yeats inspired him to visit the Aran Islands in 1898. These islands would become the inspiration for all of his works, beginning with a journal entitled The Aran Islands . His first plays, In the Shadow of the Glen (1903) and Riders to the Sea (1904), were produced by the Irish National Theatre Society, a group consisting of Yeats, nationalist playwright Lady Isabella Augusta Gregory, and Synge; the group later founded Dublin's famed Abbey Theatre.

Her daughter, Cathleen, is busy with household tasks, when another daughter, Nora, slips quietly into the kitchen with a bundle given her by the young priest. It contains part of the clothes taken from the body of a drowned man far in the north. They have been sent to Maurya's cottage with a view to possible identification. As Maurya shows signs of waking the girls hide the bundle until sometime when they shall be alone. Maurya's grieving for Michael is now coupled with fear of losing Bartley, her only remaining son. Five sons and a husband she has already lost to the sea. Will that insatiable tyrant insist on taking her sixth. The priest says not. But now Bartley insists that he will cross to the mainland this very day, in spite of winds and high seas, to dispose of a horse at the fair. In a fit of pique at this only remaining son for not listening to her pleas, Maurya lets him go without her blessing. The girls persuade her to intercept him with the lunch they had forgotten to give him and so to make opportunity for that blessing a mother should have given.

   Extractions: John Millington Synge Synge was born near Dublin in 1871 and died in 1909. He received his degree from Trinity College, Dublin, then went to Germany to study music and later to Paris, where he lived for several years working at literary criticism. Here, he met a compatriot, William Butler Yeats, who persuaded Synge to live for a while in the Aran Islands and then return to Dublin and devote himself to creative work. The Aran Islands (1907) is the journal of Synge's retreat among these primitive people. The plays of Irish peasant life on which his fame rests were written in the last six years of his life. The first two one-act plays, In the Shadow of the Glen , (1903), a comedy, and Riders to the Sea (1904), considered one of the finest tragedies ever written, were produced by the Irish National Theatre Society. This group, with Synge, Yeats and Lady Gregory as co-directors, organized in 1904 the famous Abbey Theatre. Two comedies, The Well of the Saints (1905) and The Playboy of the Western World (1907), were presented by the Abbey players. The latter play created a furor of resentment among Irish patriots stung by Synge's bitter humor.

   Extractions: JOHN MILLINGTON SYNGE This document was originally published in Minute History of the Drama Purchase Plays by John Millington Synge B IOGRAPHICALLY the most remarkable feature of Synge's career was its brevity. In the six years which elapsed between 1903, when In the Shadow of the Glen was produced, to 1909, when he died, he rose from absolute obscurity to world fame, and provided us with six plays on which his reputation must rest." [ Following the completion, or perhaps we should say, the beginning, of his education at Trinity College, Dublin, John Millington Synge set out to see the world. On foot he travelled through Germany, Italy and France, absorbing the very essence of them through the lives, legends and literature of their people. It was in 1899 in a Parisian attic that W.B. Yeats discovered him. With the unselfish insight that is not one of the least of Yeat's claims to distinction, he realized that here was a real genius being wasted on various kinds of literary hackwork. He persuaded Synge to return to Ireland and devote that genius to the themes of Irish life and the needs of the recently initiated Irish theater movement. For some time after his return Synge spent his time renewing his kinship with Ireland, sensing the life and belief of its peasantry. Especially was he interested in those islands just off the west coast, and his famous one-act play

    Extractions: Home Ancient Theatre Medieval Theatre 16th Century ... Email Us JOHN MILLINGTON SYNGE (1871-1909) B ORN in Dublin in 1871, Synge studied music before going to Paris to write. There he was saved for his native ireland by William Butler Yeats in 1899 and persuaded that he must write about his own land. He went off on a second trip to the isolated Aran Islands, where he studied the local dialects, characters, and folklore. He began to write plays of peasant life, employing the natural speech which he had learned. His first play, In the Shadow of the Glen , was performed in 1903 by the Irish National Theatre, of which Yeats and Lady Gregory were co-founders. In 1904, Synge's brief peasant tragedy, Riders to the Sea , was staged at this company's new home, the Abbey Theatre, and Synge became the Abbey's literary adviser. Other folk plays followed, including his comedy about a mock-hero, The Playboy of the Western World (1907), which caused patriots to riot at the theatre. Synge died in 1909.

    Extractions: The first practitioners of magic were not conjurers of idle spirits; they did not pull legions of attendant demons from the foundations, consult wraiths from the past, nor entreat incubi of the air. No, to strike awe, to bewilder, to sometimes entrance belief by the unearthly effects of their art, these first magicians used only such mundane props and skills as juggler's balls and legerdemain. Similarly, by my own research and claims of Synge, my intent was, and perhaps impetuously still is, to consider an artist whose work once rather violently fragmented an audience, and argue that, years later, his work has become a nexus for a nation. Seem alchemy? Proving so would necessitate my own enchantments, and even arguing for such an immodest assertion would exhaust many paper mills or fill entire gigabytes of virtual space. Accordingly, then, for this paper, my claims are restrained, and my argument modest even , perhaps, straightforward and logical. I contend that John Millington Synge's use of Celtic mythology and folklore in " Riders to the Sea " merely provides Irish men and women, whether Protestant or Catholic, of the South or of the North, a primitive and shared narrative of a singular people, however intractable their religious and political views may be.
