| Résumé : | Brian Friel's Molly Sweeney (1994) has a theme similar to Synge's The Well of the Saints (1905), a modernist text, but it has a plot based on a case study by anthropologist Oliver Sacks, "To See and Not See". While exploring the ethics of appropriation in the light of Foucault's "What is an author?", this paper establishes Friel's fascination with questions of freedom, perception and irony and defines the form of Molly Sweeney as postmodernist rather than modernist |
