  • Women Writers of the Troubles
    Women Writers of The Troubles Britta Olinder, University of Gothenburg Abstract During the thirty years of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, writing by women was difficult to find, especially concerning the conflict and its violence. The publication of the first three heavy volumes of The Field Day Anthology of Irish Writing towards the end of that period demonstrated the blindness of its male editors to female writing, leading to another two volumes focusing on women and also presenting more than expected on the conflict itself. Through looking at a selection of prose, poretry and drama written by women, this article wishes to illuminate a number of relevant issues such as: How have female writers reacted to the hate and violence, the social and political insecurity in their writing of poetry, plays and fiction? Is Robert Graecen’s question ‘Does violence stimulate creativity?’—in a letter to the Irish Times (18 Jun. 1974)—relevant also for women? In this very partial exploration, I have chosen to discuss a novel by Jennifer Johnston (Shadows on Our Skin, 1977) and one by Deirdre Madden (One by One in the Darkness, 1996), a well-known short story by Mary Beckett (‘A Belfast Woman,’ 1980), together with plays by Anne Devlin (Ourselves Alone, 1986) and Christina Reid (Tea in a China Cup, 1987), as well as poetry, by, among others, Meta Mayne Reid, Eleanor Murray, Fleur Adcock and Sinéad Morrissey. Keywords: women writers; violence; conflict; The Troubles; Jennifer Johnston; Deirdre Madden; Mary Beckett; Anne Devlin; Christina Reid; Meta Mayne Reid; Eleanor Murray; Fleur Adcock; Sinéad Morrissey The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity.

  • The Early Work of Austin Clarke the Early Work (1916-1938)
    THE EARLY WORK OF AUSTIN CLARKE THE EARLY WORK (1916-1938) OF AUSTIN CLARKE By MAURICE RIORDAN, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University March 1981 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1981) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Early Work (1916-1938) of Austin Clarke. AUTHOR: Maurice Riordan, B.A. (Cork) M.A. (Cork) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Brian John NUMBER OF Fll.GES: vi, 275 ii ABSTRACT Austin Clarke dedicated himself to the ideal of an independent Irish literature in English. This dedication had two principal consequences for his work: he developed a poetic style appropriate to expressing the Irish imagination, and he found inspiration in the matter of Ireland, in hex mythology and folklore, in her literary, artistic and __ religious traditions, and in the daily life of modern Ireland. The basic orientation of Clarke's work determines the twofold purpose of this thesis. It seeks to provide a clarifying background for his poetry, drama and fiction up to 1938; and, in examining the texts in their prope.r context, it seeks to reveal the permanent and universal aspects of his achievement. Clarke's early development in response to the shaping influence of the Irish Revival is examined in the opening chapter. His initial interest in heroic saga is considered, but, principally, the focus is on his effort to establish stylistic links between the Anglo-Irish and the Gaelic traditions, an effort that is seen to culminate with his adoption of assonantal verse as an essential element in his poetic technique.

It was not exactly or even chiefly that the recurrences of my world – a child´s face, the dial of a washing machine – were absent from the tradition, although they were. It was not even so much that I was a woman. It was that being a woman, I had entered into a life for which poetry has no name.” (In: Object Lessons The Life of the Woman and The Poet In Our Time. 1995: 18) What is poetry/writing? the country of the mind (Seamus Heaney) “It is this feeling, assenting, equable marriage between the geographical country and the country of the mind (...) it is this marriage that constitutes the sense of place in its richest possible manifestation.” - the rhetoric of imagery (Eavan Boland)..
