| Zusammenfassung: | "In this analysis of modern Irish writing, an acknowledged expert considers the hybrid character of Irish literature to show how language, culture and history have been affected by the colonial encounter between Ireland and Britain. Examining the great themes of loss and struggle, Pierce traces the impact on Irish writing of the Great Famine and cultural nationalism, and considers the way the work of Ireland's two leading writers, W. B. Yeats and James Joyce, complicates and elucidates our view of 'the harp and the crown'."--BOOK JACKET. |
