This article aims to analyze J. M. Barrie’s Mary Rose and enrich the hitherto insufficient scholarship of this play by focusing on the author’s deployment of childhood tropes within it, whose complex constellation of themes has resulted in its absolute dearth of critical attention. It argues that the play critiques the romanticized ideal of innocent imagination dislocated from the reality of human experiences and chronological time. Central to the thesis is Mary’s tragic entanglement with a Celtic fairyland, reminiscent of Peter Pan’s Neverland, leading to her transformation into a vindictive child ghost, simultaneously menacing and vulnerable. This transformation becomes a potent metaphor for the danger and fragility of the myth of perpetual childhood. However, the article also casts a sympathetic glance at Barrie’s rendition of romantic childhood by illuminating the lingering presence of childhood within the adult psyche, embodied in Harry, Mary’s middle-aged son, whose adult profile remains unrecognized by his returned ghost mother until the end. The anticipated reunion between Mary and Harry occasions a reconciliation between childhood and adulthood, revealing the unsettling fragility of adulthood as well as its secret yearning for the consolation and enchantment of childhood innocence. Ultimately, Mary Rose emerges as a poignant reflection on the complexities of growing up, challenging conventional notions of both maturity and childishness, while calling attention to the imperishable claims of childhood in one’s adult life, braced up against its temptation but constantly in need of its charm.
