Over the past forty years, life in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland has been transformed by new material conditions in each polity and by ideological shifts in the way people understand themselves and their relation to the world. Amid these remarkable changes, culture on both sides of the border has emerged as a global phenomenon, one that both reflects and intervenes in rapidly changing contemporary conditions. This volume accounts for broad patterns of literary and cultural production in this period and demonstrates the value of Irish contemporary literature within Anglophone and European traditions and as a body of work that has kept its eye trained on the particularities of the island and its inhabitants"-- Provided by publisher Notes Includes index Bibliography Includes bibliographic references and index Notes Description based upon online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed April 5, 2020) Subject English literature -- Irish authors -- History and criticism English literature -- 21st century -- History and criticism English literature -- 20th century -- History and criticism Irish literature -- 21st century -- History and criticism Irish literature -- 20th century -- History and criticism Literature and society -- Ireland -- History -- 21st century Literature and society -- Ireland -- History -- 20th century English literature.
