John Millington Synge (1871–1909), commonly referred to as J. M. Synge, was an influential Irish playwright, poet, prose writer, and collector of folklore. Celebrated as a key figure in the Irish Literary Revival, Synge is most renowned for his play 'The Playboy of the Western World,' which caused riots upon its first performance in Dublin. His literary output reflects a rich tapestry of the Irish life and language, particularly drawing from the experiences and stories of the Aran Islands' inhabitants, represented in his pivotal work 'The Aran Islands' (1907). An alumnus of Trinity College Dublin and later the Sorbonne in Paris, Synge's studies were not confined to academia, also encompassing the music, language, and landscapes of the rural Irish peasantry. His book 'In Wicklow and West Kerry' is another such contemplative collection of travel writings and essays, recounting his journeys and observations through these regions, and further establishes his descriptive precision and empathetic portrayal of Irish culture. The hallmark of Synge's literary style lies in his elucidatory narrative imbued with lyrical prose, rendering his works a blend of naturalistic detail and poetic undercurrent. Posthumously celebrated in Yeats's elegy 'In Memory of Major Robert Gregory,' Synge's contribution to the Irish cultural narrative and his artistic influence remain indisputably significant within the pantheon of Irish literature.
