Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Cloth hardcover, xviii + 222pp + 8 pages of glossy b&w photos, NOT ex-library. Clean and bright contents, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Signs of gentle handling wear. In a lightly worn, bright, untor…n and unclipped dust jacket. -- This posthumously published biography of the playwright John Millington Synge (1871-1909) was composed over many years by his nephew Edward Millington Stephens (1888-1955), a Dublin solicitor who devoted much of his life to preserving and documenting his uncle's memory. Stephens began the project partly as a corrective to what the family perceived as the inaccuracies of W.B. Yeats's and other early accounts of Synge's life. Stephens died in 1955 with the manuscript unfinished, and the literary scholar Andrew Carpenter edited and prepared the text for publication, working with the family's cooperation nearly two decades later. Carpenter's editorial work involved distilling the vast, multi-volume original draft into this cohesive single-volume biography. The book draws on intimate family knowledge and private papers to reconstruct Synge's life from his Dublin Protestant upbringing through his years of wandering in Paris and on the Aran Islands to his emergence as one of the defining voices of the Irish Literary Revival. As a nephew writing from within the family circle, Stephens offers a perspective unavailable to outside biographers, interweaving his own childhood recollections of "Uncle John" with a scholarly investigation into the domestic, social and religious milieu of the Anglo-Irish Synge household and the tensions between that background and the playwright's radical artistic choices. The account traces Synge's path to the Abbey Theatre, which he co-founded with W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory, and the creation of works including Riders to the Sea and The Playboy of the Western World, whose 1907 premiere provoked riots in Dublin. The familial vantage point gives the work its distinctive character and its limitations: Stephens writes with affection and proprietary knowledge but also with the reticence of a family member conscious of reputation. For scholars of Synge, the Irish Literary Revival and the cultural politics of early 20th-century Ireland, the biography remains a primary source of biographical detail unavailable elsewhere, particularly regarding the playwright's early health struggles and his private relationship with Molly Allgood.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. dj. First Edition. Slim 4to, 11" x 7 1/2." 72 pp. Gray boards, green cloth spine. 53 photographic illustrations arranged and introduced by Lilo Stephens. Limited to 1050 copies. Text is hand-set 14 point pilgrim type on green, handmade laid paper. Frontispiece of Synge's camera pasted in. The accla…imed playwright and poet J.M. Synge [1871-1909] was a key figure in the Irish Literary Revival, belonging to the literary circle of W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory at the turn of the 19th/20th century. Synge is best remembered for his writings, but he was a keen photographer too. The present collection of photographs taken in Dublin, Wicklow, Galway, the Aran Islands, and the Blasket Islands speaks to Synge's interest in Irish peasant life and folklore.? Lilo Stephens, the wife of Synge's nephew and biographer Edward M. Stephens, compiled the photographs from unretouched prints of the original negatives left to Stephens. Scarce title. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket which has a few minor creases.
