The Irish Writer and the World is a major new book by one of
Ireland's most prominent scholars and cultural commentators. Declan
Kiberd, author of the award-winning Irish Classics and Inventing
Ireland, here synthesises the themes that have occupied him
throughout his career as the leading critic of Irish literature and
culture. Kiberd argues that political conflict between Ireland and
England ultimately resulted in cultural confluence and that writing
in the Irish language was hugely influenced by the English literary
tradition. He continues his exploration of the role of Irish
politics and culture in a decolonising world, and covers
Anglo-Irish literature, the fate of the Irish language and the
Celtic Tiger. This fascinating collection of Kiberd's work over
twenty-five years demonstrates the extraordinary range, astuteness
and wit that have made him a defining voice in Irish studies and
beyond, and will bring his work to new audiences across the world.
