Rebecca Troeger From Image to Image Maker: Contemporary Irish Women Poets and the National Tradition • The Irish literary tradition has always been inextricably bound with the idea of image-making. Because of ueland's historical status as a colony, and of Irish people's status as dispossessed of their land, it has been a crucial necessity for Irish writers to establish a sense of unique national identity. Since the nationalist movement that lead to the formation of the Insh Free State in 1922 and the concurrent Celtic Literary Re\'ivaJ, in which writers like Yeats, O'Casey, and Synge shaped a nationalist consciousness based upon a mythology that was drawn only partially from actual historical documents, the image of Nation a.

  • The Complex Past the Door: a Life of James Liddy
    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette English Faculty Research and Publications English, Department of 1-1-2011 The omplexC Past the Door: a Life of James Liddy Tyler Farrell Marquette University, [email protected] Published version. "The ompC lex Past the Door: a Life of James Liddy," in Selected Poems. Eds. James Liddy and John Redmond. Dublin: Arlen House, 2011: 135-143. Permalink. © 2011 Arlen House. Used with permission. THE COMPLEX PAST THE DOOR A LIFE OF JAMES LIDDY Tyler Farrell Louis Zukofsky wrote, "As a poet I have always felt that the work says all there needs to be said of one's life". This more than aptly fits when describing the life of James Liddy. If a reader of Liddy wants to discover James, all he needs to do is examine the poetry, the letters, the essays; and the short biographies at the back of poetry magazines, books and anthologies. Liddy's life is scattered in his extensive body of work. He was a generous person who invited many into his world. He lived long and, because he honoured youth, never became cynical. He worked hard at the conviction that poetry and the self were sacrosanct. Who is James Liddy? Since James wrote many of his own biographical notes, as well as two late-life autobiographies, we can hear his voice and humour, feel his undying sense of art. Here is the small biographical note on the back cover of A White Thought in a White Shade, his first selected poems, published in 1987: 135 - James Liddy was born on the night of the long knives and learnt to live in Dublin, Kilkee and Co.

  • BRENDAN KENNELLY Katleyn Ferguson
    BRENDAN KENNELLY Katleyn Ferguson Beginning with the publication of Cast a Cold Eye (with Rudi Holzapfel) by Dolmen Press in 1959, Brendan Kennelly has produced more than thirty collections of poetry. He has also written novels and plays; translated and produced versions of works in Irish, Spanish, Latin, and Greek; and seen his writing adapted into pieces for the concert hall and stage. He has served as literary critic, editor, and anthologist; commented for print and television media on sports and culture; and reworked his own material for republication in new forms. For more than forty years a member of the School of English at Trinity College Dublin where he was Professor of Modern Literature, Kennelly has taught at universities across North America and Europe; spoken at hospitals, secondary schools and business management conferences; been interviewed on television chat shows; and performed his poetry widely. In 2010 he was awarded the Irish PEN Award for Contribution to Irish Literature. In his most widely discussed poem sequences, anthologies, and collections, Kennelly’s method has been to combine apparently disparate perspectives in service to a larger theme or themes. This has made him a writer who is particularly well suited to tell the stories of modern Ireland during a period of significant social change. As artist, teacher, and cultural commentator Kennelly has produced works that interrogate the legacy of Ireland’s colonial history, the place of religion in contemporary culture and politics, gender, language, and the role of poets and artists. If Kennelly’s work records the end or failing of twentieth-century Ireland’s primary authorities, it also affirms the flux, possibility, and complicated coexistence of the forms of life that have replaced these authorities.

Thurston: "A Deliberate Collection of Cross Purposes": Eavan Boland's Poeti 1/A Deliberate Collection of Cross Purposes": Eavan Boland's Poetic Sequences by MICHAEL THURSTON EGINNING IN THE EARLY 1980s, Eavan Boland began to work not only in Bindividual lyrics but in slightly longer poems ("The Journey") and sequences of lyrics (including the poems gathered in In Her Own Image). Indeed, since the 1990 American appearance of Outside History: Selected Poems 1980-1990, each of Boland's books has included at least one such sequence (Outside History included two, the title sequence and also "Domestic Interior," which consisted of poems originally published as free­ standing lyrics, first gathered into a titled sequence in this American publica­ tion). While they share the central concerns that have structured Boland's career, each sequence focuses its meditation through a different thematic lens. "Domestic Interior" elaborates and problematizes its titular familial spaces as a haven from history; "Outside History" develops, questions, and finally rejects the possibility of finding and inhabiting any space "outside his­ tory" and explores the kinds of spaces available within the history the poet ultimately chooses; "Writing in a Time of Violence" takes up language itself and the role of representation in the construction of history and the subject's response to it; and "Colony," from Boland's most recent collection, The Lost Land, meditates on such public repositories of historic residues as cityscapes and monuments.

  • Code-Mixing in Biliterate and Multiliterate Irish Literary Texts
    Estudios Irlandeses , Number 3, 2008, pp. 29-41 _______________________________________________________________________________________AEDEI Code-Mixing in Biliterate and Multiliterate Irish Literary Texts Tina Bennett-Kastor Wichita State University Copyright (c) 2008 by Tina Bennett-Kastor. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged for access. Abstract. Code-mixing and code-switching are common and well-documented processes in the speech of multilingual persons. Where multilingual persons are also literate in each language, code-mixing is also possible in writing. Despite conservative pressures which tend to deem only one of the languages in a linguistic repertoire the prestige variety, and therefore the primary choice for written expression, multiliterate authors who are able to assume a multiliterate readership may use two or more languages in their texts. Some theories of code-mixing are here summarized, along with a review of code-mixing in spoken Irish. Examination of code-mixing in modern and contemporary Irish literary texts shows that, structurally, written code-mixing is for the most part similar to what is observed in spoken language. Functionally, however, written mixing often has wider aims. Because writing is a planned and conscious form of language, multilingual writers utilize their greater linguistic repertoires strategically by imbuing different languages with different symbolic meanings. A full appreciation of such texts requires an understanding not just of the languages involved, but also of their functions in the cultural environment and the historical, political, and cultural associations with the other languages. Key words.

  • James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess
    James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess An abstract of a Dissertation by Maxine i!3urke July, Ll.981 Drake University Advisor: Dr. Grace Eckley The problem. James Joyce's Ulysses provides a basis for examining and analyzing the influence of Joyce on selected works of William Faulkner and Anthony Bur­ gess especially in regard to the major ideas and style, and pattern and motif. The works to be used, in addi­ tion to Ulysses, include Faulkner's "The Bear" in Go Down, Moses and Mosquitoes and Burgess' Nothing Like the Sun. For the purpose, then, of determining to what de­ gree Joyce has influenced other writers, the ideas and techniques that explain his influence such as his lingu­ istic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream­ of-consciousness technique are discussed. Procedure. Research includes a careful study of each of the works to be used and an examination of var­ ious critics and their works for contributions to this influence study. The plan of analysis and presentation includes, then, a prefatory section of the dissertation which provides a general statement stating the thesis of this dissertation, some background material on Joyce and his Ulysses, and a summary of the material discussed in each chapter. Next are three chapters which explain Joyce's influence: an introduction to Joyce and Ulysses; Joyce and Faulkner; and Joyce and Burgess. Thus Chapter One, for the purpose of showing how Joyce influences other writers, discusses the ideas and techniques that explain his influences--such things as his linguistic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream-of­ consciousness method.

YEAT’S PRESENCE IN JAMES JOYCE’S A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN Abstract In the context of scholarly re-evaluations of James Joyce’s relation to the literary revival in Ireland at the start of the twentieth century, this essay examines the significance of W.B. Yeats to A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. It traces some of the debates around Celtic and Irish identity within the literary revival as a context for understanding the pre-occupations evident in Joyce’s novel, noting the significance of Yeats’s mysticism to the protagonist of Stephen Hero, and its persistence in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man later. The essay considers the theme of flight in relation to the poetry volume that is addressed directly in the novel, Yeats’s 1899 collection, The Wind Among the Reeds. In the process, the influence of Yeats’s thought and style is observed both in Stephen Dedalus’s forms of expression and in the means through which Joyce conveys them. Particular attention is drawn to the notion of enchantment in the novel, and its relation to the literature of the Irish Revival. The later part of the essay turns to the 1899 performance of Yeats’s play, The Countess Cathleen, at the Antient Concert Rooms in Dublin, and Joyce’s memory of the performance as represented through Stephen towards the end of the novel.
