THE ABBEY THEATRE
THE IRISH DRAMATIC MOVEMENT, by Una Ellis-Fermor; Methuen and Co. (second edition, revised), English price 18/-. "T’HIS standard account of the early years of the Abbey Theatre and the contribution of Irish playwrights and players to modern European drama, first appeared in 1939: it concentrates on the work of Yeats, Lady Gregory and Synge, and brings the story in detail down to about 1912. Professor Ellis-Fermor has now abandoned her projected second volume: but this new edition of the original work contains an expanded final chapter with a very brief notice of later dramatists. Though incomplete, the book remains an indispensable text for drama
students.
