Beyond Ireland: Encounters Across Cultures
ISBN: 9783034302708 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This collection looks beyond Ireland metaphorically as well as geographically, moving beyond nationalism towards the culturally diverse, beyond a bilingual Ireland to a polyvocal one, beyond the imagined community towards a virtual one, beyond a territorial Ireland to an excentric one. The focus is on outsiders, ranging from Colm Toibin s subversion of establishment norms to Paul Muldoon s immersion in Jewish discourse to John Banville s extensions of the parameters of Irishness to the Lass of Aughrim finding a new role through her exclusion from the domestic hearth. The contributors to the...

Mother/Country: Politics of the Personal in the Fiction of Colm Tóibín
ISBN: 9783034307536 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This original and engaging study explores the way in which Colm Toibin repeatedly identifies and disrupts the boundaries between personal and political or social histories in his fiction. Through this collapsing of boundaries, he examines the cost of broader political exclusions and considers how personal and political narratives shape individual subjects.
Each of Toibin s novels is comprehensively addressed here, as are his non-fiction works, reviews, plays, short stories, and some as-yet-unpublished work. The book situates Toibin not only within his contemporary literary milieu, but...

Sons of Ulster: Masculinities in the Contemporary Northern Irish Novel
ISBN: 9783034301107 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Both masculinity and the Northern Irish conflict have been the subjects of a great deal of recent scholarship, yet there is a dearth of material on Northern Irish masculinity. Northern Ireland has a remarkable literary output relative to its population, but the focus of critical attention has been on poetry rather than the fine novels that have been written in and about Ulster. This book goes some way towards remedying the deficiency in critical attention to the Northern Irish novel and the lack of gendered approaches to Northern Irish literature and society.

ISBN: 9783039118892 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book explores the remarkable diaries and memoirs of Mary Leadbeater (1758-1826) and Dorothea Herbert (c.1767-1829), both of whom lived in Ireland. Working on the premise that their identities are literary constructions, the author investigates the cultural and existential impulses that motivate their creation. Leadbeater s diaries span fifty-seven years and include uncensored teenage journals, which are a rarity in Western Europe. Herbert was a member of the minor gentry and her extraordinary memoir, depicting her descent into madness, provides a wealth of cultural and historical...

No Man's Land: Irish Women and the Cultural Present
ISBN: 9783034301114 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores bilingualism and translation in contemporary women s writing. The author argues that the in-between or interstitial linguistic areas of bilingualism, translation and regionalism provide a language and imagery suitable for the expression of a specifically female consciousness. Throughout the book, she draws on the work of writers and critics in both Irish and English to construct a new method of reading Irish women s writing in the latter half of the twentieth century and the early years of the twenty-first. These bold new readings demonstrate that the concept of...

'Slight Return': Paul Muldoon's Poetics of Place
ISBN: 9783034319867 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume examines the relationship between poetic language and place in the work of Paul Muldoon. Through a close reading of the formal and stylistic aspects of his poems, the book explores the question of how poetry as an art form can be engaged to map the complex exchanges between language and the material, phenomenal, personal and social dimensions of our sense of place. In particular, it demonstrates how various forms of repetition and return, in language and memory, are crucial to Muldoon's approach to place and landscape. Each chapter focuses on a specific aspect of the poet's... This volume examines the relationship between poetic language and place in the work of Paul Muldoon.

Sous Les Pavés ... the Troubles: Northern Ireland, France and the European Collective Memory of 1968
ISBN: 9783631626436 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Recent studies on the impact of 1968 have focussed on transnational perspectives. The scope and nature of the rebellions go far beyond the stereotypical frameworks that have dominated traditional representations. As the diversity of this year of revolt gains greater currency, the case of 1968 has emerged as a critical lens through which to examine the question of transnational collective memories. This book addresses the dominance of the French mai 68 in the way the events are remembered at a European level. Through a comparison with the French events, this study explores how the...
