Focusing on the geography and culture of the Aran Islands, this collection of journal entries by John Millington Synge captures the essence of the local people and their rural lifestyle. Completed in 1901 and published in 1907, it reflects Synge's extensive travels through these Irish-speaking islands. The work not only highlights the unique characteristics of the Aran Islanders but also situates them within larger European and global commercial contexts, offering a rich exploration of identity and place.
