Обложка Lady Gregory: Irish Folk-History Plays (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

This 1912 collection of plays by Lady Gregory, dedicated to Theodore Roosevelt, contains three tragedies: Grania, Kincora, and Dervorgilla. Many critics believe that Grania, in which she takes a traditional myth glorifying female self-sacrifice and gives it a feminist reinterpretation, is her masterpiece.
