This is the first full-length study to focus on Samuel Beckett's drama as it has been staged in Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Joyce's Ghosts: Ireland, Modernism, and Memory
ISBN: 9780226526959 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For decades, James Joyce's modernism has overshadowed his Irishness, as his self-imposed exile and association with the high modernism of Europe's urban centers has led critics to see him almost exclusively as a cosmopolitan figure.

Ireland, Gibbons shows, is not just a source of subject matter or content for Joyce, but of form itself. Joyce's stylistic innovations can be traced at least as much...
