{"product_id":"after-yeats-and-joyce","title":"After Yeats and Joyce","description":"\u003cp\u003eIrish literature after Yeats and Joyce, from the 1920s onwards, includes texts which have been the subject of much contention.  For a start how should Irish literature be defined: as works which have been written in Irish or as works written in Englsih by the Irish?  It is a period in which ideas of Ireland--of people, community, and nation--have been both created and reflected, and in which conceptions of a distinct Irish identity have been\n\u003cbr\u003earticulated, defended, and challenged; a period which has its origins in a time of intense political turmoil.  `after Yeats and Joyce' also suggests the immense influence of these two writers on the style, stances, and\n\u003cbr\u003epreoccupations of twentieth-century Irish literature.  Neil Corcoran focuses his chapter on various themes such as `the Big House', the rural and provincial, with reference to authors from Kinsella and Beckett to William Trevor, Seamus Heaney, and Mary Lavin, providing a lucid and far-reaching introduction to modern Irish writing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46058743169262,"sku":"9780192892317","price":68.06,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780192892317.jpg?v=1736481936","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/after-yeats-and-joyce","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
