There is a strong and ancient tradition of ghostly appearances in Ireland. The country is full of old castles with secret rooms, and while some of the stories are obvious figments of lively imaginations, there are other tales that cannot easily be explained away. Of the many bizarre ocurrences related in this collection, perhaps the strangest is the case of the Gormanstown Foxes: on the death of a Viscount Gormanstown, groups of foxes would gather around the castle and sit there untouched by hounds until the funeral rites were over.

 

Irish Ghost Stories contains stories that tell of spooky goings-on in almost every part of the country. They include the tales of the Wizard Earl of Kildare, the Scanlan Lights of Limerick, Buttoncap of Antrim, Maynooth College's haunted room, Loftus Hall in Wexford, and an account of how the poet Francis Ledwidge appeared to an old friend in County Meath.

 

Patrick Byrne was a fifth-generation Dubliner who was active in Journalism and writing for many decades. His other books include The Irish Ghost Stories of Sheridan Le Fanu (Mercies Press). He died in 1999.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

These witty and informing essays range across Ireland's Victorian and twentieth-century literature with special attention to the social and historical backgrounds. The poet Tom Moore, novelist-priest P.A. Sheenan, professor-critic Edward Dowden and pre-Home Rule Presbyterianism are the highlights of Brown's nineteenth century. And between the Literary Revival and the recent Northern Renaissance, he probes the work and milieux of Synge, Yeats, Beckett, O'Faolain, Kavanagh and Clarke, of C.S. Lewis, Geoffrey Taylor, Brian Moore and Denis Donoghue, and Richard Murphy, John Montague, Seamus Heaney, Derek Mahon, James Simmons, Tom Paulin, Paul Muldoon, Frank McGuinness, Stewart Parker and Brendan Kennelly.
 
TERENCE BROWN, a cultural historian, examines his chosen writers and writing with scrupulous sympathy, acknowledging shades of inherited belief, complex religious attitudes and imposed history. The result is a book of unusual strength and clarity with brings a critical and unifying focus to contemporary Ireland's literature.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

"Just what has made Dublin into one of the great historic capitals of the world? What kind go people did it and how did they do it? These are the questions that this encyclopedia intends to answer. A capital city includes almost by definition every imaginable form of architecture and every conceivable human type. Artists, architects, landscapers and developers have managed to formulate all shape and design supposedly possible in an ever changing environment. Every street and square, every lane and alleyway was walked and noted with compass and rule before being included in this work. Also included in the phantomatic streetscape is the ghost of something that has gone forever: the story of Dublin as it used to be, the capital of Ireland with a geographical position of 53°23' north and 6°9' west, situated on the river Liffey which flows eastwards into a natural harbor on which a ford was built which gave the region its name Áth loath, the ford of the hurdles."

 

'Amounts to a street by street historical, commercial and literary life of Dublin...highly entertaining.' The Irish Times 

 

'This most comprehensive guide to date is essential reading' Irish Independent

 

'Nobody, however well he or she knows Dublin, will fail to find fresh and interesting information in this splendid book, as enjoyable as it is useful.' Books Ireland

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Inventing Ireland is that completely unusual thing: a highly readable, joyfully contentious book whose enormous learning and superb understanding of the literary text will introduce readers for the first time to a remarkably lively panorama of Irish culture during the last century. Full of novel readings, theoretical investigations and audacious connections, Declan Kiberd’s book lifts Ireland out of ethnic studies and lore and places it in the post-colonial world. In doing so he situates its great cultural traditions where they jostle not only the major texts of English literature, but also those of writers like Salman Rushdie and García Márquez. The result in a dazzling, bravura performance”  Edward W. Said

 

“[A] thought-provoking and entertaining critical blockbuster… There is no doubt that this book immediately joins a small group of indispensable books on Anglo-Irish literary history. It is also typical of the best of that school in the brio and wit with which its learning and intelligence are carried”  Bernard O’Donoghue, Times Literary Supplement

 

Inventing Ireland is exactly what its title claims—an act of exuberant creativity. Nimbly, skillfully, and almost with a sense of near-wonderment at his own discoveries, Kiberd explores the continuities between Irish past and Irish present. And by focusing on what he calls ‘revered masterpieces,’ and by examining them in the wider social context out of which they came, he fashions a nation that is hospitable to all its prickly constituents”  Brian Friel

 

“A critical study laced with wit, energy and unrelenting adroitness of discourse… Mr. Kiberd possesses a special gift for patient exploration of works of art in relationship to their surroundings… Wit, paradox, and an almost indecent delight in verbal jugglery place Mr. Kiberd himself in a central Irish literary tradition that also includes Swift, Joyce and Beckett… Impudent, eloquent, full of jokes and irreverence, by turns sardonic and conciliatory, blithely subversive but, without warning, turning to display wide and serious reading, a generosity of spirit, a fierce and authentic concern for social and political justice. Rather like Wilde and Shaw… A remarkable achievement”  Thomas Flanagan, New York Times

 

Inventing Ireland…deserves to be read, not only by people with a special interest in Irish writing, but also by people with a strong interest in modern writing in English. Kiberd has much that is original and valuable to say... I recommend Inventing Ireland to my readers”  Conor Cruise O’Brien, Sunday Telegraph

 

"That somebody so knowledgable of the roots of Irish writing -- in Irish -- could move through Anglo-Irish literature and engage all the contemporary debates make one stand in awe of the breadth of Kiberd's scholarship. That the story is presented with wit and vigor is a futher pleasure"  Michael D. Higgins T.D.

 

“Kiberd possesses one of the liveliest and sharpest minds in Ireland, and it is not surprising that his book dazzles and engages. Nor that Inventing Ireland is both an international and an Irish book"  Eileen Battersby, Books of the Year, Irish Times

 

"A splendid book... A striking quality of the book is the author's ability to combine perceptive insight into literary matters with a keen awareness of the political forces that shaped this century"  Ulick O'Connor, Sunday Independent

 

“A dazzling book, a book to cherish and revisit. As you read and reread the Anglo-Irish texts, you’ll find it altering them, lightening them up. It changes Beckett and Joyce; it especially changes John Millington Synge. It ends by offering to reshape Irish Studies curricula”  Hugh Kenner, Washington Times

 

"Often brilliant and always intelligent"  Fintan O'Toole, Observer

 

"A fabulous story...and an important, prtisan and highly readable book for believers and sceptics alike. Someone ought to put it on John Major's bedside table"  Brenda Maddox, Literary Review

 

“Formidable, thoroughly enjoyable, always engaged, often brilliant… This is the fullest attempt we have had to date to read both Irish historical experience and the literature that this has involved in the light of post-colonial theory"  Terence Brown, The Tribune Magazine

 

“One of the best studies of Irish literature to come along in years”  Michael Stephens, Washington Post

 

"A joy to read -- endlessly provocative in its arguments and inventive in its comparisons"  Joseph O'Connor, Sunday Tribune

 

“Epical in its aims and achievements...Kiberd's most striking characteristic as a critic is his intellectual daring, a kind of dignified audacity: he is capable of saying things that simply take one's breath away”  Brendan Kennelly, Sunday Business Post

 

"A magisterial book...the prose sparkles. Kiberd wears his impressive learning lightly and relishes aphorism and anecdote...Inventing Ireland displays numerous themes on a hugh canvas, but is remarkably lucid"  Robert Taylor, Boston Globe

 

"A life-affirming and positive book...Declan Kiberd has a genius for making what has not yet been expressed into the most blindingly clear cop-on...Aphorism and quotable quotes spring up at every hand, jokes appear unannounced and every sentence lands on all fours...The tone here is one of celebration and success and generosity"  Alan Titley, Books Ireland

 

"Kiberd is a gifted linguist, uniquely qualified as a writer and critic in both Irish and English languages...One ends the book admiring his intellectual brio and engagement, and applauding his recognition of Irish cultural diversity"  Roy Foster, The Times

 

"Since Roy Foster published his Modern Ireland in 1998 the national shrine has been echoing with impious voices...But the arrival of the 'Revisionists' is already an old story. Now they have been put on their mettle by the 'Re-inventers'...Declan Kiberd's brilliant new book, Inventing Ireland, is an example"  Neal Ascherson, Independent on Sunday

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

This book traces the emergence of a self-consciously national tradition in Irish writing from the era of the French Revolution and, specifically, from Edmund Burke’s counter-revolutionary writings. From Gerald Griffin’s The Collegians, to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, from James Hardiman’s Irish Minstrelsy to Synge, Yeats, and Joyce, Irish writing is dominated by a number of inherited issues – those of national character, of conflict between discipline and excess, of division between the languages of economics and sensibility, of modernity and backwardness. Almost all the activities of Irish print culture – its novels, songs, historical analyses, typefaces, poems – take place within the limits imposed by this complex inheritance. In the process, Ireland created a national literature that was also a colonial one. This was and is an achievement that is only now being fully recognised.
 
Seamus Deane is Keough Professor of Irish Studies at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana.

 

‘It remains true that on one in the field of Irish Studies today can match Deane’s ability to move from Corkery to Madame de Stael, Hippolyte Taine to Sean o Tuama . . . Strange Country is his richest book so far.’ Terry Eagleton, Bullan

 

‘We would nowadays say the [Irish] culture flourished despite poverty; Yeats, provocatively, would say, because of it. Deane remains impartial, content to acknowledge the two great facts about modern Ireland and explore them with endless sensitivity and tact.’ The Times Higher Education Supplement

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Contemporary depictions of famine and disaster are dominated by female images. The Feminization of Famine examines these representations, exploring, in particular, the literature arising from the Irish “Great Famine” of the 1840s and the Bengali famine of the 1940s. Kelleher illuminates recurring motifs: the prevalence of mother and child images, the scrutiny of women’s starved bodies, and the reliance on the female figure to express the largely “inexpressible” reality of famine. Questioning what gives these particularly feminine images their affective power and analyzing the responses they generate, this historical critique reveals striking parallels between these two “great” famines and current representations of similar natural disasters and catastrophes.

 

Kelleher begins with a critical reading of the novels and short stories written about the Irish famine over the last 150 years, from the novels of William Carleton and Anthony Trollope to the writings of Liam O’Flaherty and John Banville. She then moves on to unveil a lesser-known body of literature – works written by women. This literature is read in the context of a rich variety of other sources, including eye-witness accounts, memoirs, journalistic accounts, and famine historiography. Concluding with a reading of the twentieth-century accounts of the famine in Bengal, this book reveals how gendered representations have played a crucial role in defining notions of famine.

 

‘Kelleher’s book is a major contribution to the work on famine and will have to be reckoned with by all future writers on the topic. It opens the terrain of gender for Irish famine studies, which has not been adequately addressed before, and counts as a work of prime and revisionary scholarship.’  

David Lloyd, the University of California at Berkeley

アイルランドに根強く生きる声の文化にあることに気づいた。

演劇、詩、絵画、写真、音楽、映像、伝承、うわさ。

さまざまな声になりすまし、その語り口を演じることによって、

アイルランドの声の文化の現在を生け捕りにし、

その現代的意義と肉声の持つ身体性について考える。

本書概要

 

近年の世界的なケルトへの関心の高まりは、いったい何を物語るのか。また1997年秋、国民投票で二代つづけて女性大統領を選出したアイルランドとは、どのような社会であり、いかなる可能性と問題点を提起しているのか。

本書では、古代ケルト文化の伝統から、カトリックの因習、近代の移民や独立問題、そして現代の文学や大衆文化に至るまで、アイルランドの精神史を〈女性〉という観点から改めて問い直す。時代と歴史を超えた複合的なケルトの娘たちの〈声〉に迫ろうとする、ユニークなアイルランド研究の試みである。

「……『ドラキュラ』はどのように読まれているのか。この問いに答えるのはそれほどむずかしくはない。一九八〇年代後半以降、『ドラキュラ』産業と呼びうるほどに量産されつづけている『ドラキュラ』論は、ほとんど例外なくふたつの傾向をもっているからである。すなわち(一)歴史主義的な傾向、そして(二)文化研究的な傾向、である。/  歴史主義というのは、ひとつのテクストを、そのテクストが産み出された歴史的コンテクストのなかで解釈すること。『ドラキュラ』がいかに歴史主義になじむテクストであるかは多言を要しまい。『ドラキュラ』という作品は,己がいかなる歴史的コンテクストのなかに位置づけられるべきテクストであるかを、たえず読者に思い出せさせるたくさんの仕掛けをもっているからである。」(丹治愛「ブラム・ストーカー『ドラキュラ』と文化研究」より[532頁])

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

In Modernism and the Celtic Revival, Gregory Castle examines the impact of anthropology on the work of Irish Revivalists such as W. B. Yeats, John M. Synge and James Joyce. Castle argues that anthropology enabled Irish Revivalists to confront and combat British imperialism, even as these Irish writers remained ambivalently dependent on the cultural and political discourses they sought to undermine. Castle shows how Irish Modernists employed textual and rhetorical strategies first developed in anthropology to translate, reassemble, and edit oral and folk-cultural material. In doing so, he claims, they confronted and undermined inherited notions of identity which Ireland, often a site of ethnographic curiosity throughout the nineteenth century, had been subject to. Drawing on a wide range of post-colonial theory, this book should be of interest to scholars in Irish studies, post-colonial studies, and Modernism.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

The Irish Writer and the World is a major new book by one of Ireland's foremost scholars and cultural commentators. Declan Kiberd, author of the award-winning Irish Classics and Inventing Ireland, here synthesises the themes that have occupied him throughout his career as a leading critic of Irish literature and culture. This fascinating collection of Kiberd's work over twenty-five years demonstrates the extraordinary range, astuteness and wit that have made him a defining voice in Irish studies and beyond, and will bring his work to new audiences across the world.

 

Declan Kiberd’s new book offers an exciting range of speculations on Irish culture in the world. Analogies of postcoloniality, the revival of the Irish language, stereotypes of the stage Irishman and the Gaelic bard, archaism and modernity, the future of Irish Studies – a host of stimulating topics are reinvented for us afresh by Kiberd’s extraordinary learning and wonderfully vivid prose. This is a book that shows how Ireland’s great cultural adventure, at once exceptional and paradigmatic, unfolds in the framework of contemporary globalisation. Kiberd offers us a true intellectual feast! Professor Fredric Jameson, Duke University

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Tracing the history of the Catholic-authored novel in nineteenth-century Ireland from its origins during the Catholic political resurgence of the 1820s to its transformation by James Joyce’s Ulysses in 1922, Emer Nolan offers a unique tour of Ireland’s literary landscape. Exploring a literary line too often overlooked in favor of Irish Gothic, she challenges received histories of nineteenth-century Irish fiction and shows how an emergent and sometimes combative Catholic middle class generated its own idiosyncratic narrative forms. Nolan offers a major reassessment of such figures as Thomas Moore, George Moore, and Charles Kickham and of sentimental fiction in nineteenth-century Ireland. With keen insight and deft arguments, Nolan presents a highly original exploration of James Joyce and his relationship to his nineteenth-century Irish Catholic predecessors. At once provocative and enlightening, Catholic Emancipations is an invaluable addition to the fields of Irish studies, Joyce studies, and the nineteenth-century novel.

 

"In reconfiguring our maps of the Irish nineteenth century, Nolan provides a persuasive archeology of the present moment, revealing just how many of our current triumphs and frustrations were anticipated in some now-neglected texts. Lucid, bold, and unfailingly incisive, Catholic Emancipations will be recognized as an over-arching vision of Irish culture by a radical critic of immense subtlety and imaginative power." 

—Declan Kiberd, author of Inventing Ireland

 

"Catholic Emancipations illuminates the distinctive features of an important and largely unexplored tradition in Irish fiction. The book offers a rich, compelling account of how Catholic fiction in Ireland grappled with the ambitions and anxieties of a politically advancing Catholic middle class." 

—Marjorie Howes, author of Yeats’s Nations: Gender, Class, and Irishness

 

Emer Nolan lectures in English at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. She is the author of Joyce and Nationalism (1995) and editor of Thomas Moore: Memoirs of Captain Rock (2007).

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Ireland on Stage: Beckett and After, a collection of ten essays on contemporary Irish theatre, focuses primarily on Irish playwrights and their works, both in text and on the stage, in the latter half of the twentieth century. It is symbolic that most at the editorial work for this book was carried out in 2006, the centenary year of the birth of Samuel Beckett. While the editors consider Beckett to be the most important playwright in post-1950 Irish theatre, it should be noted that the contributors to the book are not bound in any sense by Beckettian criticism of any kind. The contributors draw freely on Beckett and his work: some examine Beckett's plays in detail, while others, for whom Beckett remains an indispensable springboard to their discussions, pay closer attention to his or their own contemporaries, ranging from Brian Friel and Frank McGuinness to Marina Carr and Conor McPherson. The editorial policy of the book was flexible enough to allow contributors to go as far back as a hundred years in their attempt to contextualise post-1950 Irish theatre. The works of Oscar Wilde, W.B.Yeats, J.M.Synge, Bernard Shaw, Sean O'Casey, and James Joyce are frequently mentioned throughout the book; this undoubtedly added to the dynamics of the book, as well as to the rigour which the editors believe should be apparent in the collection as a whole.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Employing previously unexamined archival material, Paige Reynolds reconstructs five large-scale public events staged in early twentieth-century Ireland: the riotous premiere of J. M. Synge's The Playboy of the Western World in 1907; the events of Dublin Suffrage Week, including the Irish premiere of Ibsen's Rosmersholm, in 1913; the funeral processions of the playwright and Lord Mayor of Cork Terence MacSwiney in 1920; the sporting and arts competitions of the Tailteann Games in 1924; and the organized protests accompanying the premiere of Sean O'Casey's The Plough and the Stars in 1926. The book provides attentive readings of the literature and theatre famously produced in tandem with these events, as well as introducing surprising texts that made valuable contributions to Irish national theatre. This detailed account revises pessimistic explanations of twentieth-century mass politics and crowd dynamics by presenting a more sympathetic account of national communities and national sentiment.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

A brief overview of the central themes in Irish history, politics, and culture over the last 200 years

Challenging new angles and under-researched areas are broached, such as women's history and the lives of the Catholic middle class

Senia Paseta comes to the subject as an historian with a refreshingly impartial (and sometimes acerbic) perspective on Irish history

Ideal introduction for newcomer to subject, but original treatment makes it also essential reading for those already familiar with aspects of Irish history

This is a book about the Irish Question, or more specifically about Irish Questions. The term has become something of a catch-all, a convenient way to encompass numerous issues and developments which pertain to the political, social, and economic history of modern Ireland.The Irish Question has of course changed: one of the main aims of this book is to explore the complicated and shifting nature of the Irish Question and to assess what it has meant to various political minds and agendas. 

 

No other issue brought down as many nineteenth-century governments and no comparable twentieth-century dilemma has matched its ability to frustrate the attempts of British cabinets to find a solution; this inability to find a lasting answer to the Irish Question is especially striking when seen in the context of the massive shifts in British foreign policy brought about by two world wars, decolonization, and the cold war. 

 

 

Senia Paseta charts the changing nature of the Irish Question over the last 200 years, within an international political and social historical context.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Historically, Dublin's streets have been a grandiose stage for human events and expression - from noble and heroic to bizarre and delightfully entertaining. Classical characters from Zozimus to Bang-Bang have long graced the gritty streets of the capital amusing Dubliners on their daily rounds. No less important has been the colourful galaxy of street figures such as lamplighters, jarveys, tram drivers, buskers, dockers, drovers, dealers and spielers who have contributed to the exuberance and drama of the streets. Yet, their distinctive rôle in creating Dublin's unique social streetscape has never been explored and chronicled.

 

The first half of this century was Dublin's heyday of animated street life with the bustle of clanging trams, flamboyant horsemen, "pirate" buses, newfangled motor cars, pioneering cabbies, hordes of bicyclists, dockland chaos and thriving cattle and horse markets. Add to this Dublin's marvellous profusion of street dealers, spielers, buskers and local characters and you have what has been aptly termed the grand "cabaret of the streets of Dublin". Collectively, these rare old street types constitute a valuable repository of urban folklore, possessing their own heritage, customs, traditions and lifeways.

 

Only through the vivid oral histories of the participants themselves can this rich street life and lore be creditably captured and chronicled for future generations. The fascinating and often poignant verbal testimonies of these last surviving tram drivers, lamplighters, market traders and others of their vanishing breed comprise a wholly original and captivating personal historical record of Dublin's long renowned street life.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

For variety of reasons-cultural, national, a historical and architectural-Dublin has long been one of the important cities of Europe, and it was therefore natural to add it to a Series of books which already contains volumes on Oxford, Cambridge, Edinburgh and Bath. The capital of Eire is no less rich than these other cities in architectural treasures, and in many ways its riches have suffered less than theirs through depredation and 'improvement'. John Harvey -previously known through his work on mediaeval subjects-writes much of the buildings of Dublin, their architects and decorators, but he is not interested in architecture alone. His book is described as 'a study in environment' and it considers not only the effect which its position has had on Dublin, but also the very great influence which Dublin and Dubliners have had on the culture and civilization of Europe and America. It deals with the Dublin of today equally with the Dublin of prehistoric and mediaeval times, but naturally the greatest amount of space is devoted to the later Georgian era which gave the City its wonderful architectural inheritance.

 

A glance through the book will reveal the quality and number of its illustrations. More than 160 in all, they include a colour frontispiece, maps and plans, most of them specially drawn by the author, reproductions from old paintings, prints and engravings, and about 100 of the finest modern photographs.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

This is a comprehensive study of the problems which the city of Dublin faced between the famine and World War One. The decline of the city's traditional industries and the rising proportion of casual labourers in the population gave rise to intense poverty which resulted in excessively high death-rates and a housing crisis.

These problems were compounded by the migration of the middle-classes to the suburbs where they established autonomous self-governing townships which failed to contribute to city taxes. The alienation of the Protestant middle-class and the growing political dominance by lower middle-class Catholics – many of them slum landlords – who attributed all social and economic ills to the Act of Union, weakened the resolve to tackle the city's major ills. However it seems doubtful whether the problems of the Dublin labouring class could have been resolved within the accepted limitations of state intervention as they existed prior to World war One.

 

The work draws on a wealth of sources to examine topics such as choice of marriage partners, occupational continuity between father and son, the background of tenement families and the corporation tenants, and the role of contemporary charitable institutions – topics hitherto relatively neglected in Irish historical research.

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

The Annals of Dublin reconstructs the City's evolution, providing a memoir of its great occasions interspersed with day-to-day detail. Its origins and growth, buildings and streetways, citizens, 'characters', architects, politicians, revolutionaries, workers and layabouts, noble or otherwise - all those constituents of the City's magnificent and unique personality will be found hop-scotching through these lively pages.

 

The historical photographs from the Francis Browne sj Collection add a visual dimension, recording their times while illustrating the Fair City's experience of continuity and change.
