Tune in daily during Dublin Theatre Festival to hear director Conor Hanratty shine a light on this new translation by one of Ireland’s foremost poets, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill. Contributors include Iarla O’Lionáird, Edith Hall, Marie Mullen, Bríd Ní Neachtain, Mel Mercier, Oliver Taplin, and Caitríona Ní Mhurchú. Persians (Na Persaigh) tells the story of a small island nation who conquered the massive army of its neighbours to the east, an empire that had threatened them for centuries. This play imagines the reaction of the community left behind, faced with a crippling defeat, and the shame of losing to the underdog. Unusually for a Greek tragedy, it describes a real event, a battle in which the playwright himself took part. This play has never not been relevant: it is a critique of war, an attempt to imagine the experience of others, and a warning against military pride. https://www.persiansthepodcast.com/about daily 0.75 2024-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ae199908e03695b34fa3d/1597401395330-DD52VD8JJS2J1UH6B9BO/nuala_headshot.webp.jpeg About - Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill is widely regarded as the greatest living poet in the Irish language.

Gach rud a theastaigh uait a fhomhlaimt faoin tragóid Gréagach is luaithe, Na Peirsigh, le hAeschylus, in aistriúchán beoga nua Gaeilge. Éist linn go laethúil le linn Dublin Theatre Festival chun an stiúrthóir Conor Hanratty a chloisteáil ag cur solais ar an aistriúchán nua seo le duine de na filí is mó le rá in Éirinn, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill. I measc na rannpháirtithe tá Iarla O’Lionáird, Edith Hall, Marie Mullen, Bríd Ní Neachtain, Mel Mercier, Oliver Taplin, agus Caitríona Ní Mhurchú. Insíonn Na Peirsigh scéal náisiún oileáin bheag a choinnigh arm ollmhór a chomharsan soir, impireacht a bhí i mbaol dóibh leis na cianta. Samhlaíonn an dráma seo imoibriú an phobail fágtha ina ndiaidh, agus é ag dul amú go dona, agus náire an chailliúint. Go neamhghnách do thragóid Gréagach, déanann sé cur síos ar eachtra dáiríre, a chath páirt inar ghlac an drámadóir féin. Tá an dráma seo ábhartha i gcónaí: saghas critice cogaidh, iarracht eispéireas daoine eile a shamhlú, agus rabhadh i gcoinne mórtas míleata. https://www.persiansthepodcast.com/foireann daily 0.75 2020-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ae199908e03695b34fa3d/1597401395330-DD52VD8JJS2J1UH6B9BO/nuala_headshot.webp.jpeg Foireann - Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill is widely regarded as the greatest living poet in the Irish language.
