Beskrivelse af Cathleen Ni Hoolihan
Cathleen Ni Hoolihan is a one-act play written in prose by the Irish poet and playwright, William Butler Yeats, and first published in 1902. The play is set in rural Ireland in the early 19th century and tells the story of a mysterious old woman named Cathleen Ni Hoolihan who appears to a family mourning the loss of their son who was about to be married. She convinces the family's youngest son to abandon his plans for marriage and join her in the fight for Irish independence. The play is a powerful allegory for the Irish struggle for independence from British rule, and the character of Cathleen Ni Hoolihan has become an iconic symbol of Irish nationalism. The play is also notable for its use of traditional Irish folk music and poetry, which Yeats incorporated into the text to create a distinctly Irish atmosphere.Overall, Cathleen Ni Hoolihan is a short but powerful play that explores themes of sacrifice, patriotism, and the struggle for freedom. It remains a beloved work of Irish literature and a testament to Yeats' skill as a playwright and poet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
