The Literature of Northern Ireland
The Literature of Northern Ireland: Spectral Borderlands theorizes how Irish cultural production has been disturbed by partition. Maureen Ruprecht Fadem argues that the rearrangement of the island and creation of multiple states produced two major effects in the North: it incited concomitant fractures within self and society and interrupted experiences of place. Chapters analyze the ways in which conditions are represented in the literature through a self-contradictory poetics that fuses ancient and contemporary literary styles. Age-old Irish tropes are deployed within recognizably postmodern styles in works that rely, particularly, on specter and scrim: haunting, deathly characters and metaphors and perilous, pivotal borders.
