Henry Moore, M.P.; a well-known orator and politician. He studied See also:art in See also:London and finished his See also:education in See also:Paris. He was a See also:regular contributor to various London magazines when he published his first See also:volume, in See also:verse, The See also:Flowers of See also:Passion (1897). A second, See also:Pagan Poems, appeared in 1881. As a novelist he followed the See also:French school of See also:Flaubert and See also:Zola, and became prominent for deliberate See also:realism. His powerful Mummer's Wife (1885) had decidedly repulsive elements. But Zolaism meanwhile was a thing to which the See also:reading public was gradually becoming acclimatized. George Moore's See also:Esther See also:Waters (1894), a strong See also:story with an See also:anti-gambling See also:motive, had a more See also:general success, and was followed by See also:Evelyn Innes (1898), a novel of musical See also:life, and its sequel, See also:Sister Teresa (1901). He interested himself in the Irish Gaelic revival, and was one of the founders of the Irish See also:Literary See also:Theatre. His See also:play, The Strike at Arlingford (three acts, in See also:prose, 1893), was written for the See also:Independent Theatre, and his satirical See also:comedy, The Bending of the Bough (Igloo), dealing with Irish See also:local affairs, was played by the Irish Literary Theatre in See also:Dublin. His Diarmuid and Grania, written with Mr. W. B. Yeats, was produced by Mr. F. R. See also:Benson's See also:company at the same theatre in 1901.
