Elizabeth Healy's Literary Tour of Ireland: See Ireland

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Healy, Elizabeth, PUBLISHER: Wolfhound Press (IE), The age-old Irish preoccupation with place gave rise to a whole genre of Gaelic literature devoted exclusively to place-lore.

Enroute, readers will encounter, perhaps rediscover, some of the world's greatest literary personalities and be rewarded by the discovery of lesser-known treasures.

Irelands in the Asia-Pacific

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robson, Julie-Ann / Kuch, Peter, PUBLISHER: Colin Smythe, This exciting collection of essays by a group of eminent scholars explores the teaching and research of Irish literature in a region of the world that has scouted the attractions of western culture since the sixteenth century. It is reasonably well known that in his own life-time W. B. Yeats was invited to take up a Professorship in Japan; that Ulysses has been translated at least three times into Chinese; that the plays of George Bernard Shaw apparently strike a chord with students in Hong Kong; that the fairy-tales of Wilde are reverenced in China; and that the Irish influence on Australian literature has been pervasive if not profound. But what is not well known are the contexts for these and other interrelations. Irelands in the Asia-Pacific explores these in a sequence of articles grouped under the headings of: Writing an Irish Self; Joyce at Large; Post-Colonial Readings of Irish Literature; Antipodean Connections; Teaching Irish Literature in the Asia-Pacific; and Irish Literature Down-Under.

Emigrants and Exiles: Ireland and the Irish Exodus to North

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Miller, Kerby A., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The first "translantic" history of the Irish, Emigrants and Exiles promises to become a landmark in our understanding of this important emigration movement. From the early s to the early s, no fewer than seven million people emigrated from Ireland to north America. This vast flow amounted to much more than mere numbers: it at once reflected and compelled enormous social changes on both sides of the Atlantic. Emigrants and Exiles chronicles the momentous causes of the Irish emigration and its far-reaching impact--on the people themselves, on the land they left behind, and on the new one they came to. Drawing on enormous original research, Kerby Miller focuses on the thought and behavior of the "ordinary" Irish emigrants, Catholic and Protestant, as revealed in their personal letters, diaries, journals and memoirs as well as in their songs, poems, and folklore. He finds that while many were eager newcomers to "the land of promise," many more saw themselves as involuntary "exiles" who had been forced to leave Ireland by cruel fate or British oppression. The exile mentality, Miller shows, was deeply rooted in Irish history, culture, and personality, and it profoundly affected the traumatic course of modern Irish history even as it shaped the Irish-American experience in very particular ways. The impressive scope of Miller's work embraces all the successive waves of Irish emigration, and he fills the book with rich human detail. About the Author:Kerby A. Miller is Associate Professor of History at the University of Missouri, Columbia.
