Rövid leírás:

A provocative range of essays on twentieth-century Irish authors, critics and culture framed in contexts of transition and transnationalism.

Hosszú leírás:
This volume explores the history of Irish writing between the Second World War (or the 'Emergency') in 1939 and the re-emergence of violence in Northern Ireland in the 1970s. It situates modern Irish writing within the contexts of cultural transition and transnational connection, often challenging pre-existing perceptions of Irish literature in this period as stagnant and mundane. While taking into account the grip of Irish censorship and cultural nationalism during the mid-twentieth century, these essays identify an Irish literary culture stimulated by international political horizons and fully responsive to&&&160;changes in publishing, readership, and education. The book combines valuable cultural surveys with focussed discussions of key literary moments, and of individual authors such as Se&&&225;n O'Faol&&&225;in, Samuel Beckett, Edna O'Brien, and John McGahern.

'... a remarkably ambitious project, taking the temperature of Irish literature from 1730 to the present in approximately 2,400 pages.' Anthony Roche, Irish Times
