The years between 1780 and 1830 are vital decades in the history of
Irish writing in English. This book charts the confluence of
Enlightenment, antiquarian, and romantic energies within Irish
literary culture and shows how different writers and genres
absorbed, dispersed and remade those interests during five decades
of political change. During those same years, literature made its
own history. By the 1840s, Irish writing formed a recognizable body
of work, which later generations would draw on, quote, anthologize
and dispute. Questions raised by novels, poems and plays of the
late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries - the politics of
language and voice; the relationship between literature and
locality; the possibility of literature as a profession - resonated
for many Irish writers over the centuries that followed and
continue to matter today. This comprehensive volume will be a key
reference for scholars and students of Irish literature and
romantic literary studies.
