The Aran Islands by J. M. Synge
"The Aran Islands" by J. M. Synge is a four-part collection of journal entries completed in 1901 and published in 1907. Based on Synge's travels to the Irish-speaking islands off Ireland's western coast, the work chronicles his encounters with the local people, culture, and language. Synge explores the communities' isolation and distinctive traditions while revealing their connections to broader European and global networks. His observations capture a vanishing way of life shaped
by the islands' rocky terrain and remoteness from mainland civilization. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
