This book examines the intersection of culture and language in Ireland and Irish contexts. The editors take an interdisciplinary approach, exploring the ways in which culture, identity and meaning-making are constructed and performed through a variety of voices and discourses. This edited collection analyses the work of well-known Irish authors such as Beckett, Joyce and G. B. Shaw, combining new methodologies with more traditional approaches to the study of literary discourse and style. Over the course of the volume, the contributors also discuss how Irish voices are received in translation, and how marginal voices are portrayed in the Irish mediascape. This dynamic book brings together a multitude of contrasting perspectives, and is sure to appeal to students and scholars of Irish literature, migration studies, discourse analysis, traductology and dialectology.

Amigo lector: Vas a disfrutar mucho la lectura de este libro porque en el espejo de cada verso encontrars un recodo de tu propio corazn. Las mismas interrogantes que te asustan, los ms nobles sentimientos que te exaltan, la universalidad de tu fuerza y tu debilidad, los vers atrapados en la jaula de luz del poeta y te sorprenders caminando junto a l en la bsqueda incesante del horizonte. Jos Manuel desnuda su alma ante nuestros ojos presentndonos una galera de sentimientos sinceros, pintados con trazo vigoroso y tierno, en bellas imgenes poticas inflamadas de sus dos grandes pasiones: el amor y la libertad y nuestros pensamientos ms ntimos se sorprendern descubiertos ante la sabidura de un hombre que conoce la vida. La poesa cubana ya no ser la misma despus de la publicacin de este poemario. Te invito a adentrarte en estas dulces pginas de las cuales saldrs crecido, ms optimista y feliz. Oscar lvarez Alemn.
