Against Eloquence: Irish Drama at Century’s End

Abstracts

EN

Synge, with his “fully-flavoured” Hiberno-English established a tradition of Irish theatrical eloquence that has come down into the contemporary period in the lyrical fluencies of Brian Friel, the vatic speech of Frank McGuinness and the Midlands poeticism of Marina Carr. Tom Murphy, however, set a different sort of precedent, resistant to such eloquence, forging a stage speech instead from the broken language of the inarticulate. The aim of this paper is to explore the rejection of ‘poetry talk’ in contemporary Irish drama, and the various ideolects created by Billy Roche, Conor McPherson, Martin McDonagh, Mark O’Rowe and Enda Walsh.
