The application of postcolonial theories to Irish literature
remains a contentious issue. Unlike other colonised nations,
Ireland shared a long history of political, economic and artistic
ties with its empire-building neighbour, Britain. Yet the Irish
response to the project of British imperialism bears comparison
with postcolonial models of the relationship between colonisers and
the colonised. Writing from the Margins of Europe assesses the
potential for postcolonial analysis of works by W. B. Yeats, J. M.
Synge and James Joyce. In this exploration of postcolonial
parallels between these writers, the author focuses on four core
issues: historiography, nationalism, language and displacement.
