Augusta Gregory, a pivotal figure in the Irish Revival, navigated complex relationships and contradictions throughout her life. As a founder of the Abbey Theatre and a patron of W. B. Yeats, she made significant contributions to literature through her plays, essays, and translations of Irish legends. This biography explores her nationalism and its influence on her work, situating her within the historical context of Ireland and highlighting her unexpected impact on both literature and her homeland.
