Appropriation emerged during the Celtic Revival as a singular mode
of engaging with the Shakespearean text to conceptualise and frame
national identities in Ireland using the English language. With The
Celtic Revival in Shakespeare's Wake, Adam Putz has examined the
ways in which the discourse of Anglo-Irish cultural politics shaped
the Shakespeares of Matthew Arnold, Edward Dowden, and W. B. Yeats.
His close readings underscore the instability of the binary
oppositions upon which these writers relied to predicate their
appropriations. However, Putz finds in James Joyce an urgent
concern for the pernicious manner in which the discourse of
Anglo-Irish cultural politics mediated the relationship with
Shakespeare for a generation of Irish men and women. Therefore,
Putz reconsiders periodization and literary inheritance, the nation
and modernity in order to point up the contingency of those values
located in and imposed upon Shakespeare during the Revival.
