Archibald: Introduction Introduction By DOUGLAS ARCHIBALD s HOLMES FAMOUSLY REMARKED, the curious incident is that the dogs are A not barking. Why has the Irish Studies establishment made so little of William Trevor? Nothing in Terry Eagleton. Nothing in W.J. McCormack, even though he writes about almost everything. Nothing in David Lloyd in spite of a well-informed interest in fiction. Nothing in Margot Backus's The Gothic Family Romance: Heterosexuality, Child Sacrifice, and the Anglo-Irish Colonial Order (1999), a Texas thesis become a Duke book which-aside from the required, lurid glow of the title-sounds like a book about Trevor. Nothing in Sex, Nation, and Dissent in Irish Literature (1997), or Representing Ireland: Gender, Class, Nationality (1997), or Decolonisation and Criticism: The Construction ofIrish Literature (1998), or New Voices in Irish Criticism (2000). Nothing in the Irish University Review special issue on "Contemporary Irish Fiction" (Spring/Summer 2000). Little on the program in recent meetings of ACIS or IASIL. Hardly any mention in the summer schools. Seamus Deane and Declan Kiberd are silent, except in their comprehensive literary histories, in which mention is unavoidable, and even then Kiberd is perfunctory: Both [Brian] Moore and Trevor are rightly renowned for the cool, crafted clarity of their prose, their wry wistful ironies, and their use of telling detail; and each has won a substantial overseas readership for many other books of high quality which have nothing to do with Ireland.

A novelist-or any artist­ admired for what he produces, may not necessarily have lived anything but the most mundane of lives" (Excursions 176). His remark is a warning to any prospective biographer of Trevor himself, his way of implying that his own life has no worthwhile story. Yet the warning has its own paradoxical interest, for surely it is Trevor's particular gift to make literature out of the mundane. His refusal to dramatize the artistic self, to adopt heroic or romantic postures, somehow allows him to absorb and honor his mundane material, to find a tone that mirrors the inner lives of his unheroic characters. The consistency of that tone is his major accomplishment, according to John Banville: "his inimitable, calmly ambiguous voice can mingle in a single sentence pathos and humor, outrage and irony, mockery and love.... He is almost unique among n10dem novelists in that his own voice is never allowed to intrude into his fiction" (Paulson 166-67).

  • The Novel and the Short Story in Ireland
    The Novel and the Short Story in Ireland: Readership, Society and Fiction, 1922-1965. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Anthony Halpen April 2016 Anthony Halpen Institute of Irish Studies The University of Liverpool 27.03.2016 i ABSTRACT The Novel and the Short Story in Ireland: Readership, Society and Fiction, 1922-1965. Anthony Halpen, The Institute of Irish Studies, The University of Liverpool. This thesis considers the novel and the short story in the decades following the achievement of Irish independence from Britain in 1922. During these years, many Irish practitioners of the short story achieved both national and international acclaim, such that 'the Irish Short Story' was recognised as virtually a discrete genre. Writers and critics debated why Irish fiction-writers could have such success in the short story, but not similar success with their novels. Henry James had noticed a similar situation in the United States of America in the early nineteenth century. James decided the problem was that America's society was still forming - that the society was too 'thin' to support successful novel-writing. Irish writers and critics applied his arguments to the newly-independent Ireland, concluding that Irish society was indeed the explanation. Irish society was depicted as so unstructured and fragmented that it was inimical to the novel but nurtured the short story. Ireland was described variously: "broken and insecure" (Colm Tóibín), "often bigoted, cowardly, philistine and spiritually crippled" (John McGahern) and marked by "inward-looking stagnation" (Dermot Bolger).

Text in English with summary in Polish. The book treats on the change in the representation of the concepts of space and place in contemporary Irish novels. The thesis examines the interrelation between place and identity, underlying its prevalence in contemporary Irish culture. Therefore, the analysis of the novels aims to present how the alterations in the perception of given places influ- ence the development of personal and collective consciousness in contemporary Repub- lic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The work argues for the simultaneity of these two processes, allowing for the treatment of place as a mirror for social changes observable in Ireland.

  • William Trevor, Old Columban a Talk Given by Julian Girdham on Thursday 23Rd March 2017 in the Big Schoolroom of St Columba'
    William Trevor, Old Columban A talk given by Julian Girdham on Thursday 23rd March 2017 in the Big Schoolroom of St Columba’s College to mark the life and writings of the author. illiam Trevor died in November 2016, aged 88. He entered the College under his real name, Trevor William Cox, in January 1944 and left in W July 1946. Those mere two and a half years out of the 88 were however disProPortionately important in the shaPing of his artistic imagination. Schools can sometimes, for their own PR PurPoses, claim more influence than they should on the achievements of their famous alumni, but in this case the evidence is Plentiful: and it is of course in the words of William Trevor himself. In an interview with Mike Murphy on RTÉ Radio in the year 2000, he said about St Columba's: It was a 'Posh' school, to use a contemporary word. When I was at Sandford Park, we thought how strangely they sPoke. We would imitate the Columba's accent. But when I got there that school was very Pleasantly mixed. There were a fair number of Anglo-Irish representatives there, but there were also a lot of shoPkeePers', farmers' and clergymen's sons. It was in those days a good school, because the bullying which had been a feature of its Past had been stamped out. I do remember being beaten a couple of times and very unPleasant it was too ... if you're going to be beaten you should be beaten by a responsible beater with a licence or whatever.
