frmed the disturbed impressions to be
derived from the stormy hearing on

Irish life or Irish character 10 the world
The figures in this poem are indeed drawn
from remote parts of his country, but Il
is not presnmahle that Synge meant tha

way. He was expressing in the terms of
people whom he knew well and sought
to'interpret faithfully truths that are a
part of humanity the world over.
A sentimental, poetic, irresponsible
youth staggered into strange town
with the boast that he has killed his father
on a high and windy hill and buried his
corpse in one Of the fields there. That he
becomes a hero among the simple peo pie

or Irish men show honor to parricides
Synge's broader purpos" seems to indicate
that simple humanity anywhere may be
