About European Lyric Folkdrama
Annotation New York-based English teacher Farrington examines nine folk-inspired rural dramas produced between 1885 and 1936 by Spain's Federico Garcia Lorce, Ireland's John Millington Synge, and Germany's Gerhart Hauptmann. By analyzing the linguistic conventions of the three dramatists and tying the language of the plays to a myth and ritual content, he defines them as representatives of the sub-genre lyric folkdrama.
