DESCRIPTION
This course analyses the differing ways representations of Ireland and Irishness have been created in English-language fiction, poetry, drama and film. The course is structured around themes like the representation of landscape and culture, the experience of migration, the politics of theatre, gender identity, and the meaning of nationality. We examine works from writers such as W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, Augusta Gregory, J.M. Synge, Liam O?Flaherty, Brian Friel, Mary O'Malley, Paula Meehan and Patrick McCabe. We also view and discuss movies directed by American and Irish film-makers.
