In this book, Eric Falci reshapes the story of Irish poetry since
the 1960s. He shows how polemical arguments concerning the role of
poetry in 1960s Ireland evolve into a set of formal and
compositional strategies for emerging Irish poets in the mid 1970s
and beyond. His study presents a cohesive picture of the
relationship between Northern Irish poetry from the Republic of
Ireland since World War II and traces the lineage of lyric practice
from a unique historical perspective. At the same time, it
recontextualizes late twentieth-century Irish poetry within the
long Irish poetic tradition, places Irish writing more accurately
within the field of postwar Anglophone poetry and offers a new
account of lyric's critical capacities. Of interest to Irish
studies and twentieth-century poetry specialists, this book
provides a much-needed guide to some of the most inventive and
notable poetry written in the past forty years.
