Book Description:
|
Ireland is a country which has come to be defined in part by an ideology which conflates nationalism with the land. In this book, Wright considers this fraught relationship between land and national identity in Irish literature. In doing so, she presents a new vision of the Irish national landscape as one that is vitally connected to larger geographical spheres.
