I've got his posthumous collection "Plays, Poems and Stories", very eager to read them very soon.

Have you read Plunkett's poetry? A little ameteur a times but is steeped in that blend of Catholic mysticism and "blood sacrifice" nationalism along-side some poignant love poems.
A Nationalist writer I have my eye on is G.A. Bermingham who was very influential upon the irish revival with his copious amount of novels, and a few very key plays.
Yeats' 'Michael Robartes and the Dancer' and 'Cathleen Ni Houlihan' are also considered very important, but I've only read the former and I can assure you - even asides from its nationalist poems - is very beautiful.

Here's 2 from it:
