  • Empire, Class, and Religion in Lady Gregory's Dramatic Works
    ‘The Return to the People’: Empire, Class, and Religion in Lady Gregory’s Dramatic Works Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Anna Pilz. July 2013 Anna Pilz University of Liverpool 2013 Abstract ‘The Return to the People’: Empire, Class, and Religion in Lady Gregory’s Dramatic Works Anna Pilz This thesis examines a selection of Lady Gregory’s original dramatic works. Between the opening of the Abbey Theatre in 1904 and the playwright’s death in 1932, Gregory’s plays accounted for the highest number of stage productions in comparison to her co-directors William Butler Yeats and John Millington Synge. As such, this thesis analyses examples ranging from her most well-known and successful pieces, including The Rising of the Moon and The Gaol Gate, to lesser known plays such as The Wrens, The White Cockade, Shanwalla and Dave. With a focus on the historical, bibliographical, and political contexts, the plays are analysed not only with regard to the printed texts, but also in the context of theatrical performances. In order to re-evaluate Gregory’s contribution to the Abbey, this thesis is divided into three chapters dealing with dominant themes throughout her career as a playwright: Empire, class, and religion. Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to the Institute of Irish Studies, University of Liverpool, for its financial support throughout my postgraduate studies. I am also indebted to the School of Histories, Languages and Cultures and the International Association for the Study of Irish Literatures for their financial assistance in covering travel costs to conferences and archives in the UK and abroad.

    HISTORY & RECORDS BISONS HISTORY & RECORDS BUFFALO BISONS RETIRED NUMBERS OLLIE CARNEGIE #6 Carnegie was the most popular player and greatest off ensive performer in the history of professional baseball in Buff alo. He played 12 years with the Bisons (1931-1941, 1945) and is Buff alo’s all-time leader with 258 home runs (2nd in International League behind only Mike Hessman) and 1,044 RBI. Carnegie led the Bisons in home runs and RBI seven times (1932-1935, 1937-1939) and the IL twice (1938, 1939). His 45 home runs in 1938 remain a club record. A lifetime .308 hitter, Carnegie also owns the Bisons records for games (1,273), hits (1,362) and doubles (249) even though he didn’t join the team until he was 32 years old. Carnegie was in the inaugural class for both the International League (1947) and Buff alo Baseball Hall of Fame. LUKE EASTER #25 Luscious Easter was a slugging fi rst baseman whose long home runs and colorful style of play captured the hearts of Bisons fans from 1956 through 1959. Easter, who was the fi rst black player to play for Buff alo since 1888, hit over 35 homers and drove more than 100 runs for three consecutive seasons in Buff alo. He led the International League in home runs at RBI in both 1956 (35 homers, 106 RBI) and 1957 (40 home runs, 128 RBI). All told, Easter hit 114 home runs and drove in 353 runs with the Bisons. Of his many memorable games, Easter will always be remembered as the fi rst player ever to hit a home run over the scoreboard at Off ermann Stadium.
