Cathleen Ni Hoolihan is a one-act play written by the renowned Irish poet and playwright, William Butler Yeats. The play was first performed in 1902 and is set during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. The story revolves around a mysterious old woman named Cathleen Ni Hoolihan who appears to a family in rural Ireland, seeking their help in finding her lost sons. As the family becomes more involved in her search, they begin to realize that Cathleen is not who she seems and that her true purpose is to inspire young men to fight for Irish independence. The play is written in both prose and verse and is steeped in Irish mythology and folklore. It explores themes of sacrifice, nationalism, and the power of myth and legend to inspire people to act. The character of Cathleen Ni Hoolihan has become a symbol of Irish nationalism and resistance, and the play has been interpreted as a call to arms for the Irish people to fight for their freedom. Overall, Cathleen Ni Hoolihan is a powerful and evocative play that captures the spirit of Irish history and mythology.

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) was an Irish poet, playwright, and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. A co founder of the Abbey Theatre and a key figure in the Irish Literary Revival, Yeats's early work was marked by romanticism and Irish mythology, later evolving into a more modernist style rich in symbolism and political themes. His major collections include The Tower and The Winding Stair, showcasing his profound reflections on aging, history, and national identity. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923, Yeats remains celebrated for his lyrical mastery and deep influence on modern poetry
