Tento irský učitel, básník a politický aktivista se stal jednou z vůdčích osobností Velikonočního povstání. Jeho deklarovaná role 'prezidenta prozatímní vlády' Irské republiky, ačkoliv sporná, jej po jeho popravě a pádu povstání v očích mnoha proměnila v ztělesnění rebelie. Pearseho básnické a prozaické dílo, ovlivněné jeho nacionalistickými ideály, často zkoumá témata oběti, identity a touhy po svobodě. Jeho styl je typicky lyričtější a symboličtější, odráží jeho vizi o duchovním znovuzrození národa skrze boj.
Padraic Pearse was a leading figure in the Irish Easter Rising of 1916, and his work as an author and poet helped to inspire the movement for Irish independence. This collection of his works includes plays, stories, and poems that celebrate the beauty and resilience of Irish culture and history. With its powerful language and stirring themes, Collected Works is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish literature and history.
"The Master" is a play written by Patrick Pearse, an Irish nationalist leader and playwright, and was first performed in 1912. Set in a rural Irish community, the play explores themes of nationalism, identity, and the struggle for independence. The plot centers around a small village schoolmaster, known simply as "The Master," who becomes a symbol of Irish resistance against British rule. As tensions escalate between the villagers and the British authorities, The Master emerges as a charismatic leader, inspiring his fellow Irishmen to rise up against oppression. Through powerful dialogue and vivid imagery, Pearse captures the spirit of the Irish nationalist movement and the longing for freedom. The play serves as both a celebration of Irish heritage and a call to arms for those seeking to reclaim their nation's sovereignty.
