This research paper: A 4 page essay that examines 2 Irish plays. The Book of Job recounts how this ancient Hebrew lost everything he had, including his children. Job 1:21 reads: 'Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away.' In two early twentieth century plays, Irish playwrights John Synge in Riders to the Sea and Sean O'Casey in Juno and the Paycock address a similar degree of suffering grief. In each of these plays, religion plays a role in the development and differentiation of the characters, but its primary significance is that it underscores the thematic content of the plays, which portrays the misery that often accompanied Irish life during the early decades of the twentieth century. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
