Though derided by critics during his lifetime, his works resonated with audiences, won him the Nobel Prize and four Pulitzer, and continue to grip theatergoers today. Now noted historian John Patrick Diggins offers a masterly biography that both traces O'Neill's tumultuous life and explains the forceful ideas that form the heart of his unflinching works. Diggins paints a richly detailed portrait of the playwright's life, from his Irish roots and his early years at sea to his relationships with his troubled mother and brother. Here we see O'Neill as a young Greenwich Village radical, a ravenous autodidact who attempted to understand the disjunction between the sunny public face of American life and the rage that he knew was simmering beneath. According to Diggins, O'Neill mined this disjunction like no other American writer. His characters burn with longing for an idealized future composed of equal parts material success and individual freedom, but repeatedly they fall back to earth, pulled by the tendrils of family and the insatiability of desire. Drawing on thinkers from Emerson to Nietzsche, O'Neill viewed this endlessly frustrated desire as the problematic core of American democracy, simultaneously driving and undermining American ideals of progress, success, and individual freedom. Melding a penetrating assessment of O'Neill's works and thought with a sensitive re-creation of his life, Eugene O'Neill's America offers a striking new view of America's greatest playwright-and a new picture of American democracy itself. 606 $aDramatists, American$y20th century$vBiography 606 $aDramatists, American$y20th century$xFamily relationships 606 $aDramatists, American$y20th century$xPsychology 607 $aAmerica$xIn literature 615 0$aDramatists, American 615 0$aDramatists, American$xFamily relationships. 615 0$aDramatists, American$xPsychology. 676 $a812/.52 676 $aB 700 $aDiggins$b John P$0174338 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964351303321 996 $aEugene O'Neill's America$94351691 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03784nam 22008053 450 001 9910137461303321 005 20240424225716.0 010 $a9780776621845 010 $a077662184X 010 $a9780776626215 010 $a0776626213 010 $a9780776621821 010 $a0776621823 010 $a9780776626147 010 $a0776626140 024 7 $a10.1515/9780776621838 035 $a(OCoLC)909085738 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse37794 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1676717 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3432545 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4649125 035 $a(FrMaCLE)OB-uop-922 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/31698 035 $a(PPN)204523753 035 $a(CKB)3170000000060277 035 $a(DE-B1597)668136 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780776621838 035 $a(OCoLC)1074254858 035 $a(Perlego)667415 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88867941 035 $a(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/kmjd9p 035 $a(ScCtBLL)80c86c2e-97e4-4bf0-b96d-fa217cf4b73d 035 $a(FRCYB88867941)88867941 035 $a(oapen)doab44071 035 $a(oapen)doab31698 035 $a(EXLCZ)993170000000060277 100 $a20231108h20152015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn#---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aLaw, privacy, and surveillance in Canada in the post-Snowden era /$fedited by Michael Geist 205 $a1st ed. 210 $cLes Presses de l'Universite? d'Ottawa | University of Ottawa Press 210 1$a[Ottawa, Ontario] :$cUniversity of Ottawa Press,$d2015. 210 4$dİ2015 215 $a1 online resource (480 pages) 225 1 $aLaw, Technology and Media 311 08$a9780776622071 311 08$a0776622072 311 08$a9780776621838 311 08$a0776621831 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aCanadian internet "boomerang" traffic and mass NSA surveillance : responding to privacy and network sovereignty challenges / Andrew Clement, Jonathan A.
