...On the other hand, writers who were pioneers of Moorhouse and others, who were not related to the counterculture, included Hal Porter (1911-84), a short-story writer who created a collage of intense parodic language, and David Ireland (1927- ), who wrote surrealist works. In terms of plays, Louis Esson (1879-1943), who corresponds to Lawson in the novel, is known as the founder of Australian drama. In addition to the writers mentioned in the theater section, other representative writers of the play world that flourished after the 1960s include Dorothy Hewett (1923- ), who portrays women struggling within a male-centered ethos of mateship, Peter Kenna (1930- ), who delves into the lives of Irish-Australians, Alexander Buzo (1944- ), who portrays alienation from fellow Australians and from the New World culture, Louis Nowra (1950- ), who indirectly criticizes Australia by setting his plays in Europe, and Aboriginal writer Bob Merritt (1945- ).
