Reflecting the rich critical debate at the `Beckett and the State
of Ireland' conferences held in Dublin between 2011 and 2013, this
volume brings together a selection of essays which explore and
respond to the Irish concerns which echo in the fiction, drama, and
poetry of Samuel Beckett. From the portrayals of the haunting
landscape of South County Dublin in Beckett's work to its
interrogation of the political and social pieties of the infant
nation state in which the author came to maturity, Beckett and the
`State' of Ireland uncovers the enduring presence of Ireland in one
of the most influential bodies of writing in modern
literature.Examining the politics of cultural identity, sexuality
in the post-independence era, representations of disability in
Beckett's fiction and drama, Ireland's culture of incarceration,
the role of eugenics in the Irish cultural imagination, and the
themes of exile and displacement in Beckett's writing, amongst
other concerns, Beckett and the `State' of Ireland enriches
understandings of the social, cultural, and political dimensions of
Beckett's work and introduces new and challenging perspectives to
the study of Irish literature and culture.
