Fülszöveg


In 1935 E. Martin Browne, the editor of this volume, produced T. S. Eliot's Murder in the Cathedra! and so gave the impetus to modern verse drama. In this book he has selected four more examples so that the reader may come to his own assessment of this particular genre. The Family Reunion, thought by many critics to be Eliot's best play, sets out to interpret in a modern setting the scheme of retribution of an Aeschylean tragedy. A Phoenix Too Frequent, the first of Christopher Fry's plays to win acclaim, retells in charming verse Petronius' story of the swiftly consoled widow. Charles Williams portrays Thomas Cranmer of Canterbury as a lovable, pitiable human being crushed by spiritual conflict and historical circumstance. Donagh MacDonagh's !Happy as Larry is a comic fantasy of Irish rural life - its style and rhythm are derived from the popular street-ballads of Dublin.
