Dorothy Macardle
Mainly remembered for The Irish Republic and her close association with Eamon de Valera, Dorothy Macardle (1889-1958) was one of the most popular and influential Irish historians of her time. She was also a journalist, playwright, novelist, and political activist. This first biography of Macardle traces her life from her involvement in the War of Independence to her role as a leading civil libertarian in the 1950s, and discusses her literary career and international human rights work. An Irish nationalist writer with an international reputation, Dorothy Macardle was a woman of many facets, and her career sheds light on modern Irish political history, interwar-era women's history, and Irish historiography and literature. -- Publisher description

Irish Women Playwrights, 1900-1939
Irish Women Playwrights 1900-1939 is the first book to examine the plays of five fascinating and creative women, placing their work for theatre in co-relation to suggest a parallel tradition that reframes the development of Irish theatre into the present day. How these playwrights dramatize violence and its impacts in political, social, and personal life is a central concern of this book. Augusta Gregory, Eva Gore-Booth, Dorothy Macardle, Mary Manning, and Teresa Deevy re-model theatrical form, re-structuring action and narrative, and exploring closure as a way of disrupting audience expectation. Their plays create stage spaces and images that expose relationships of power and authority, and invite the audience to see the performance not as illusion, but as framed by the conventions and limits of theatrical representation. Irish Women Playwrights 1900-1939 is suitable for courses in Irish theatre, women in theatre, gender and performance, dramaturgy, and Irish drama in the twentieth century as well as for those interested in women's work in theatre and in Irish theatre in the twentieth century.
Dark Enchantment
Written in 1953, Dark Enchantment evokes a magical pre-war France, and was written after her successful novels The Uninvited and The Unforeseen.
