Beschreibung:

The Methuen Drama Guide to Contemporary Irish Playwrights is an authoritative guide to the work of twenty-five playwrights from the last 50 years whose work has helped to shape and define Irish theatre. Written by a team of international scholars, it provides an illuminating survey and analysis of each writer''s plays and will be invaluable to anyone interested in, studying or teaching contemporary Irish drama.


The playwrights examined range from John B. Keane, Brian Friel and Tom Murphy, to the crop of writers who emerged in the 1990s and who include Martin McDonagh, Marina Carr, Emma Donoghue and Mark O''Rowe. Each essay features:


  • a biographical sketch and introduction to the playwright
  • a discussion of their most important plays
  • an analysis of their stylistic and thematic traits, the critical reception and their place in the discourses of Irish theatre
  • a bibliography of texts and critical material

    With a total of 190 plays discussed in detail, over half of which were written during the 1990s and 2000s, The Methuen Drama Guide to Contemporary Irish Playwrights is unrivalled in its study of recent plays and playwrights.
