LADY AUGUSTA GREGORY (1852-1932) was an Irish writer and playwright of the Gaelic Revival who, through her translations of Irish legends, her peasant comedies and fantasies based on folklore, her patronage of other artists and her work for the Abbey Theatre, played an immense part in the late nineteenth-century Irish literary renaissance.
