  • Competing Traditions: the Twentieth and Twenty-First Century Irish Literatures Between Realism and Experimentation Katarzyna Ojrzyńska and Wit Pietrzak ______HJEAS
    Competing Traditions: The Twentieth and Twenty-First Century Irish Literatures between Realism and Experimentation Katarzyna Ojrzyńska and Wit Pietrzak ________________________________________________________HJEAS It will barely be an overstatement to claim that the Irish novel arrived on the international scene in the aura of experiment, as Ulysses (1922), after initially slogging in the doldrums of the Western literary consciousness, quickly came to be mentioned in the same breath with Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway (1924), Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time (1913), and Thomas Mann’s Magic Mountain (1924). The fact that Joyce faced enormous difficulty publishing each of his novels seems testament to the trenchant tastes of Ireland’s literati but also shows that realism was and, to a large degree, is the mode of choice among Irish audiences. The case with poetry is largely similar, as W. B. Yeats quickly realized. It was his early, broadly Romantic poetry that popular audiences cherished; so much so that by the early 1920s he declined to read his all-time favorite “The Lake Isle of Innisfree” (Foster 418), which was a staple of Poems 1889-1908, a collection that remained his most reissued and remunerative volume throughout his life. Yeats, however, is now best known for his post-1908 work, especially for the myth-infused poems of The Tower (1928) and The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1933). For a literature born in the fires of formal experiment, the Irish novel, more so perhaps than poetry, was dominated in the years after World War II by realism and formal conservatism. Writing of contemporary Irish fiction, Eve Patten has suggested that “[f]or the most part, it remained formally conservative: beyond a prevalent social realism, its chief stylistic hallmark was a neo-Gothic idiom which signalled a haunted or traumatised Irish society and deep-seated disturbances in the national psyche” (259).
