This book surveys Irish writing in English over the last two
centuries, from Maria Edgeworth to Seamus Heaney, to give the
literary student and the general reader an up-to-date sense of its
variety and vitality and to indicate some of the ways in which it
has been described and discussed. It begins with a brief outline of
Irish history, of Irish writing in Irish and Latin, and of writing
in English before 1800. Later chapters consider Irish romanticism,
Victorian Ireland, W.B.Yeats and the Irish Literary Revival, new
directions in Irish writing after Joyce and the literature of
contemporary Ireland, north and south, from 1960 to the present.
