Book The Critical Study of Irish Literature Indispensable for the History of the Irish Race  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Critical Study of Irish Literature Indispensable for the History of the Irish Race Classic Reprint written by Alfred Nutt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critical Study of Irish Literature Indispensable for the History of the Irish Race What has already been accomplished is, however, trifling in comparison with what remains to be done. Irish literary history is not, as is the Polar region, a term incognito; but it may be likened to the interior of the African continent som'o forty years ago. We can surmise roughly the course of the great streams; we can plot in loosely the position of the chief mountain ranges and lacustrine basins. Here and there a daring exploring raid has revealed the details as well as the rough outlines of a district. But we have, as far as the earlier and more interesting portion of Irish literature is concerned, got no fixed points of latitude or longtitude; we are destitute of even such rough surveys as may be accomplished by the sole aid of the compass and dead reckoning.

Book Race in Irish Literature and Culture

Download or read book Race in Irish Literature and Culture written by Malcolm Sen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Race in Irish Literature and Culture provides an in-depth understanding of intersections between Irish literature, culture, and questions of race, racialization, and racism. Covering a vast historical terrain from the sixteenth century to the present, it spotlights the work of canonical, understudied, and contemporary authors in Ireland, Northern Ireland, and among diasporic Irish communities. By focusing on questions related to Black Irish identities, Irish whiteness, Irish racial sciences, postcolonial solidarities, and decolonial strategies to address racialization, the volume moves beyond the familiar frameworks of British/Irish and Catholic/Protestant binarisms and demonstrates methods for Irish Studies scholars to engage with the question of race from a contemporary perspective.

Book Constructions of Illiteracy in Twentieth Century Ireland

Download or read book Constructions of Illiteracy in Twentieth Century Ireland written by Maighréad Tobin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-23 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constructions of Illiteracy in Twentieth-Century Ireland: Contesting the Narrative of Full Literacy offers new insights into literacy and illiteracy in the context of twentieth-century Ireland. Through a close analysis of archived documentation from educational, military, and parliamentary sources, the book reveals a potent narrative of full literacy that promoted literacy proficiency as a facet of the Irish national identity and suppressed any formal acknowledgment of illiteracy within the adult population. Tobin applies a sociological approach and uses Foucauldian concepts of knowledge, power, discourse, and silence to examine how constructions of "illiteracy" and the “illiterate person” varied over time, while also being entwined with activities of nation-building in the twentieth century. Though focused on Irish society from 1900 to 1980, this volume also offers a resonant lens through which to approach the “Decade of Centenaries”, an Irish Government initiative spanning 2012–2023 that commemorates significant events in the history of the Irish state. Relevant to any readers with an interest in the Irish experience of independence, decolonisation, and postcolonialism, this book will be a useful companion for scholars and postgraduate students of literacy and Irish studies more broadly.

Book American literature and Irish culture  1910   55

Download or read book American literature and Irish culture 1910 55 written by Tara Stubbs and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American literature and Irish culture, 1910–55: The politics of enchantment discusses how and why American modernist writers turned to Ireland at various stages during their careers. By placing events such as the Celtic Revival and the Easter Rising at the centre of the discussion, it shows how Irishness became a cultural determinant in the work of American modernists. It is the first study to extend the analysis of Irish influence on American literature beyond racial, ethnic or national frameworks. Through close readings and archival research, American literature and Irish culture, 1910–55 provides a balanced and structured approach to the study of the complexities of American modernist writers’ responses to Ireland. Offering new readings of familiar literary figures – including Fitzgerald, Moore, O’Neill, Steinbeck and Stevens – it makes for essential reading for students and academics working on twentieth-century American and Irish literature and culture, and transatlantic studies.

Book A History of Irish Literature and the Environment

Download or read book A History of Irish Literature and the Environment written by Malcolm Sen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Gaelic annals and medieval poetry to contemporary Irish literature, A History of Irish Literature and the Environment examines the connections between the Irish environment and Irish literary culture. Themes such as Ireland's island ecology, the ecological history of colonial-era plantation and deforestation, the Great Famine, cultural attitudes towards animals and towards the land, the postcolonial politics of food and energy generation, and the Covid-19 pandemic - this book shows how these factors determine not only a history of the Irish environment but also provide fresh perspectives from which to understand and analyze Irish literature. An international team of contributors provides a comprehensive analysis of Irish literature to show how the literary has always been deeply engaged with environmental questions in Ireland, a crucial new perspective in an age of climate crisis. A History of Irish Literature and the Environment reveals the socio-cultural, racial, and gendered aspects embedded in questions of the Irish environment.

Book A Short History of Irish Literature

Download or read book A Short History of Irish Literature written by Seamus Deane and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seamus Deane, one of Ireland's most important critics, assesses here the place of literature in "a colonial or neo-colonial culture like ours, where the naming of the territory has always been ... a politically charged act". The force of Deane's A Short History of Irish Literature derives precisely from his naming of the territory. With insight, erudition, and a razor-keen style, he locates Irish writers within the island's traumatic history. His aim is to show how literature has been inescapably allied with historical interpretation and with political allegiance.
