Autorenporträt
Isabella Augusta, Lady Gregory (March 15, 1852 - May 22, 1932) was an Irish dramatist, folklorist, and theater manager. She co-founded the Irish Literary Theatre and the Abbey Theatre with William Butler Yeats and Edward Martyn, and authored numerous short plays for both companies. Lady Gregory wrote a number of works that were retellings of stories from Irish mythology. She was born into a class that identified strongly with British rule, yet she rebelled against it. Her conversion to cultural nationalism, as indicated by her works, was symbolic of many of Ireland's political conflicts during her lifetime. Lady Gregory is most known for her contributions to the Irish Literary Revival. Her home at Coole Park in County Galway served as an essential gathering location for key Revival leaders, and her early work as a member of the Abbey's board was at least as vital for the growth of that theatre as her creative writings. Aristotle inspired Lady Gregory's motto: "To think like a wise man, but express oneself like the common people."
