Seller's Description:
Very slight shelf wear to cover, near fine. 110 p. plus Index Series editors Seamus Deane and Breandán Mac Suibhne. In Colonial Crossings, Marjorie Howes is concerned with the responses of both major and minor literary figures to cultural conjunctures in the emergence of modern Ireland. She illuminates the affective political power of secretions in the poetry of Lady Wilde, the shifting religious allegiances of William Carleton, Sheridan Le Fanu's deployment of femininity in the Anglo-Irish Gothic, and corporal punishment in the novels of the Irish-American writer Mary Anne Sadlier. Colonial Crossings also includes revelatory discussions of Joyce's Gretta Conroy and the question of female migration and Yeats and the public sphere. Colonial Crossings is provocative, rigorously argued and lucidly written. Marjorie Howes's attention to recent developments in postcolonial theory moves the discussion of Irish identity into a new comparative and transnational frame.
