Julia M. Wright examines how nineteenth-century Irish writers such as Maria Edgeworth, Lady Morgan, Bram Stoker, Oscar Wilde and Thomas Moore wrote about India, showing how their own experience of colonial subjection informed their work. In doing so she opens up new avenues in Irish studies and nineteenth-century literature.
