초록
With her Ascendancy background and enormous contributions made to the Irish Literary Revival, which idealized the Irish peasantry, Lady Gregory’s political and cultural legacy has been described most often as contradictory. This paper contends that paying close attention to Lady Gregory’s concept of Irish melancholy in her writings, especially Spreading the News, allows us to envision a more nuanced picture of her conflicted mind. In her eyes, Irish melancholy is an affect representative of the Irish peasantry’s potential for political subversion and creative, imaginative prosperity. Yet, she also acknowledges its self-destructive capacity. The paper occasionally draws from Lady Gregory’s unpublished essay “Laughter in Ireland” and The Gaol Gate (1906).
