The Brian Friel Papers at the National Library of Ireland constitute a remarkable testament to a life's work in progress, encapsulating a way of working and creating art over a span of more than fifty years. This groundbreaking book serves as the first of its kind, delving into the profound impact of the Brian Friel Papers on Friels legacy as a working artist with a highly developed creative practice. Through an unprecedented focus on Friels artistic process, Kuczyńska explores not only the sources of influence and inspiration that shaped his work but also the potential for his praxis to inspire others. By seamlessly blending forensic archival scholarship with original, practice-based research, this study remains steadfastly committed to unraveling the "how" of influence, showcasing an approach to literary archives that prioritizes live practices of access in the spirit of creative encounter. Whether unearthing forgotten source materials for Friels plays or engaging with contemporary practitioners in the arts, Kuczyńska unveils how an artistic approach to literary archives can furnish the necessary tools for establishing a significant creative legacy that is not fixed but rather dynamic and ever-evolving.
