Covering a vast historical terrain from the sixteenth century to the present, it spotlights the work of canonical, understudied, and contemporary authors in Ireland, Northern Ireland, and among diasporic Irish communities. By focusing on questions related to Black Irish identities, Irish whiteness, Irish racial sciences, postcolonial solidarities, and decolonial strategies to address racialization, the volume moves beyond the familiar frameworks of British\/Irish and Catholic\/Protestant binarisms and demonstrates methods for Irish Studies scholars to engage with the question of race from a contemporary perspective.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51023001485585,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51023003615505,"sku":"NIN9781316513118","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52406362374417,"sku":"NLS9781316513118","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1316513114.jpg?v=1751145240"},{"product_id":"history-of-irish-literature-and-the-environment-book-malcolm-sen-9781108490139","title":"A History of Irish Literature and the Environment","description":"From Gaelic annals and medieval poetry to contemporary Irish literature, A History of Irish Literature and the Environment examines the connections between the Irish environment and Irish literary culture. Themes such as Ireland's island ecology, the ecological history of colonial-era plantation and deforestation, the Great Famine, cultural attitudes towards animals and towards the land, the postcolonial politics of food and energy generation, and the Covid-19 pandemic - this book shows how these factors determine not only a history of the Irish environment but also provide fresh perspectives from which to understand and analyze Irish literature. An international team of contributors provides a comprehensive analysis of Irish literature to show how the literary has always been deeply engaged with environmental questions in Ireland, a crucial new perspective in an age of climate crisis. A History of Irish Literature and the Environment reveals the socio-cultural, racial, and gendered aspects embedded in questions of the Irish environment.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126505206033,"sku":"NLS9781108490139","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52746796892433,"sku":"NIN9781108490139","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781108490139.jpg?v=1757476658"},{"product_id":"irish-anthropocene-book-malcolm-sen-9780815612070","title":"Irish Anthropocene","description":"In Irish Anthropocene, Malcolm Sen traces the ways in which contemporary Irish literature is deeply engaged with climate change issues. Drawing upon concepts of sovereignty, precarity, and disaster, Sen examines Irish literary works and their concern with realms of the political, the economic, and the ecological. The association of greenness with Ireland and its role in the corporatization of Ireland Inc. has been robustly critiqued to reveal the underbelly of Ireland’s unsustainable energy and food regimes and its distressing environmental record with international climate change mitigation efforts. \t  \t  \tWriting in the shadow of such emissions, contemporary authors are alert not only to the insincerity of pastoralist rhetoric and the instrumentalized greenery of Irish fiction, but they are also responding to the planetary-level threats dominating the discourse of the Anthropocene. The Irish canon has historically played a crucial role in Irish nationalism, and these works are often written at a time when questions of statehood and citizenship are increasingly at the forefront of Irish and geopolitical discourses. \t  \t  \tSen argues that Ireland’s fraught nationhood—and its resulting literature—can be used as a framework to analyze the ubiquitous, multigenerational scale of the climate crisis. Cleverly written and groundbreaking in scope, Sen’s analyses dissect the connection between Irish sovereignty, its literature, and the urgent climate disaster.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53005748371729,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53005749027089,"sku":"NGR9780815612070","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780815612070.jpg?v=1767881187"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-malcolm-sen.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
