Synopsis
This book analyses poetry and prose written by combatant and non-combatant Irish writers during the First World War, and goes on to look at how the war was remembered in the two decades that followed. It concludes with a discussion of recent Irish literature about the conflict, focusing on the role of memory and the narrative of nationhood., This book analyses poetry and prose written by combatant and non-combatant Irish writers during the First World War, focusing on key works influenced by Irish, English and European literary traditions. It highlights the complex positions adopted by writers in relation to the international conflict and to Irish debates about nationhood, which resist reduction to the simple binaries of Unionist/pro-war and Nationalist/anti-war. The book goes on to discuss the literature of the decades following the war, looking at how the conflict was remembered in the two parts of the now divided island, both by individuals and collectively, and investigating the dynamic interrelationship between personal recollection and public memory. In conclusion, the author discusses contemporary literature about the war, which often examines family memory as well as collective memory, and explores its role in the narrative of nationhood, both north and south of the border.

    Great seller. Item perfectly described. Delivery from US to UK so took a little time but I was kept informed of progress throughout. Better price compared with UK sellers so worth the wait. Would happily use this seller again.
