This course charts the development of Irish literature from the 18th to the early 20th century.
Through selected texts, it will address how authors using various literary genres (pamphlets,
fiction, poetry) address the emergence of the Irish nation and shape a national tale. Specifically,
it will examine how the wit and satire of Anglo-Irish literature (Swift) offers a critical insight
into blatant social injustices and develop strategies that counter censorship. It will move on to
examine the development of the “big house” novel of the early 19th century (Edgeworth) and
the motifs and varieties of the Irish gothic novel (Maturin). Finally, the study of selected poems
by W.B. Yeats will lead to an overview of the Irish Revival as Ireland moves into war, and
independence in the early 20th century.
