Technology in Irish Literature and Culture shows how such
significant technologies-typewriters, gramophones, print, radio,
television, computers-have influenced Irish literary practices and
cultural production, while also examining how technology has been
embraced as a theme in Irish writing. Once a largely rural and
agrarian society, contemporary Ireland has embraced the
communicative, performative and consumption habits of a culture
utterly reliant on the digital. This text plumbs the origins of the
present moment, examining the longer history of literature's
interactions with the technological and exploring how the
transformative capacity of modern technology has been mediated
throughout a diverse national canon. Comprising essays from some of
the major figures of Irish literary and cultural studies, this
volume offers a wide-ranging, comprehensive account of how Irish
literature and culture have interacted with technology.
