| dc.description.abstract | This thesis uses feminist criticism as a means of shedding new light on the Irish political, social, and cultural issues in Sean O'Casey's plays. While traditional critical analysis has often viewed the O'Casey female construct as a symbol of virtue and tenacity, the present study defines these characters more in terms of their patriarchal objectification. | en_US |
