Books in the Irish Literature in Transition series

Capturing the emerging trends and current debates in contemporary scholarship, this volume will interest scholars and students of Irish literature and culture. Its diverse chapters will help readers understand Irish writing through innovative contexts ranging from political and social history to the recovery of previously neglected authors.

This is among the very first collections for graduates and researchers to track Irish and Northern Irish writing across the twentieth century's long turn, and the remarkable transitions that accompanied it. It revisits major writers and texts, providing path-making accounts of emergent figures through a range of perspectives.
