    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH “THE GRANITE CEILING”: DISCOURSES OF GENDER AND OPPRESSION IN THE POETRY OF PAULA MEEHAN GINNELLE SROKA Spring 2012 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in English with honors in English. Reviewed and approved* by the following: Jessica O’Hara Lecturer in English, Director of LA 101H Thesis Supervisor Jack Selzer Barry Director of the Paterno Fellows Program Professor of English Second Reader Lisa Sternlieb Professor of English Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College i ABSTRACT This thesis strives to provide contextual and critical analysis of a selection of Irish poet Paula Meehan’s poetry in light of her personal and canonical struggles with oppression and exclusion. The project is divided into two separate sections under which the poems are categorized: motherhood and influence, and the creation of poetry. The poems chosen in these sections offer insight into Meehan’s views on these subjects and how those views are directly linked to the oppressions surrounding the female voice in Irish poetic canon. This thesis argues that the resistance to outwardly repressive forces is an integral part of Meehan’s creative process and analyzes how this resistance has shaped her poetry. Examination of these influences and their link to her development as a poet also has significant implications for a minority in any poetic canon by revealing the effects of repression and exclusion. Though this project observes that oppression certainly affects poetry, it also proves that the poet has the ability to affect oppression.

  • A Critical Introduction to the Poetry of Pat Boran
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Firenze University Press: E-Journals Studi irlandesi. A Journal of Irish Studies, n. 9 (2019), pp. 547-562 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.13128/SIJIS-2239-3978-25529 Detached Lyricism and Universal Rootedness: A Critical Introduction to the Poetry of Pat Boran Pilar Villar-Argáiz University of Granada (<[email protected]>) Abstract: Pat Boran is one of the most versatile, polyvalent and innovative voices in contemporary Irish poetry. In spite of his prolific career as a poet, editor, and fiction writer, and the positive reviews his work has received over the years (i.e. Smith 2007; Linke 2009; Dempsey 2011; Cornejo 2016; Kehoe 2018), Boran has received very little critical at- tention in Irish Studies. This critical introduction intends to cover this gap in academia, by offering a more detailed critical appraisal of a poetic voice largely underrated within Irish literary criticism, as O’Driscoll (2007, xiv-xv) laments in his introduction to his Selected Poems. In particular, I will offer a brief critical overview of Boran’s six collections of poetry, and I will concentrate on several aspects which seem to distinguish him as a writer: his sense of “detached lyricism” (that is to say, his intensive biographical but at the same time imper- sonal style); the importance that local rootedness exerts in his work; and his idiosyncratic way of handling themes such as masculinity. Keywords: Contemporary Irish Poetry, Irish Haikus, Masculinity, Pat Boran Pat Boran is one of the most versatile, polyvalent and innovative voices in contemporary Irish poetry.

His face retained the pallor The of those who work underground: the lost years in Brooklyn listening to a subway shudder the earth. Cage But a traditional Irishman who (released from his grille John Montague in the Clark Street IRT) drank neat whiskey until from new collected poems he reached the only element (the gallery press, 2012) he felt at home in any longer: brute oblivion. And yet picked himself up, most mornings, to march down the street extending his smile to all sides of the good, (all-white) neighbourhood belled by St Teresa's church. When he came back we walked together across fields of Garvaghey to see hawthorn on the summer hedges, as though he had never left; a bend in the road which still sheltered primroses. But we did not smile in the shared complicity of a dream, for when weary Odysseus returns Telemachus should leave. Often as I descend into subway or underground I see his bald head behind the bars of the small booth; the mark of an old car accident beating on his ghostly forehead. —2— 21 74 Sc ience and W onder by Richard Hayes Iggy McGovern A Mystic Dream of 4 quaternia press, €11.50 Iggy McGovern’s A Mystic Dream of 4 is an ambitious sonnet sequence based on the life of mathematician William Rowan Hamilton.

  • “Am I Not of Those Who Reared / the Banner of Old Ireland High?” Triumphalism, Nationalism and Conflicted Identities in Francis Ledwidge’S War Poetry
    Romp /1 “Am I not of those who reared / The banner of old Ireland high?” Triumphalism, nationalism and conflicted identities in Francis Ledwidge’s war poetry. Bachelor Thesis Charlotte Romp Supervisor: dr. R. H. van den Beuken 15 June 2017 Engelse Taal en Cultuur Radboud University Nijmegen Romp /2 Abstract This research will answer the question: in what ways does the poetry written by Francis Ledwidge in the wake of the Easter Rising reflect a changing stance on his role as an Irish soldier in the First World War? Guy Beiner’s notion of triumphalist memory of trauma will be employed in order to analyse this. Ledwidge’s status as a war poet will also be examined by applying Terry Phillips’ definition of war poetry. By remembering the Irish soldiers who decided to fight in the First World War, new light will be shed on a period in Irish history that has hitherto been subjected to national amnesia. This will lead to more complete and inclusive Irish identities. This thesis will argue that Ledwidge’s sentiments with regards to the war changed multiple times during the last year of his life. He is, arguably, an embodiment of the conflicting loyalties and tensions in Ireland at the time of the Easter Rising. Key words: Francis Ledwidge, Easter Rising, First World War, Ireland, Triumphalism, war poetry, loss, homesickness Romp /3 Table of contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 4 Chapter 1 History and Theory ...................................................................................................
