Produktinformationen "Post-Ireland? Essays on Contemporary Irish Poetry"
Essays exploring the evolution of contemporary Irish poetry in a globalized world.Irish poetry is examined through themes of gender, myth, folklore, religion, landscape, nation-states, and empire. Essays explore the post-national and trans-historical nature of younger Irish poets, recognizing both the search for a national concept of Ireland and the sense that long-established definitions no longer apply. The poets discussed write in the shadow of Irish history and the Northern Troubles, connecting to a wider poetic and political culture. Migration is a key issue, with questions raised about Ireland's place in Europe and America. As Irish society changes, so does its poetry, and this volume charts those transitions.Targeted toward scholars and students of Irish literature, this collection offers: Critical analysis of contemporary Irish poetryExploration of globalization's impact on Irish identityInsight into cultural transitions and historical contexts
