520			_aThis book explores the drama of John B. Keane and focuses on his best-known play, The Field, in an examination of the cultural and psychological resonances present in his work. From the changing social, political, and economic contexts of the play's genesis, to present-day austerity and malaise, The Field remains a popular and relevant piece of theatre, and in this publication possible motivations behind such popularity and relevance are posited. Unconscious resonant processes of identification at play within The Field are explored through the application of psychological and post-colonial filters, and the analysis of Keane's representations of gender, both masculine and feminine, with strong reference to socio-historical contexts throughout. By doing so, further ways of re-reading Keane's works are suggested, thereby encouraging a re-appraisal of an often critically overlooked Irish playwright. The examination of the concept of 'resonance', which is at the core of this book, provides a unique insight into Keane's drama and how it interacts with the public at large. Through the modes of analysis of The Field employed in this work, further methods of reading Keane's other dramas are suggested, and thus, this book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in Keane, Irish drama, or for that matter, the field of Irish studies itself.
