Description
Robert Welch's 'Changing States' is an in-depth study of modern Irish literature, exploring how key writers responded to Ireland's transformation from Gaelic culture to twentieth-century post-industrial society.
The work of Yeats, Heaney, Synge, Beckett, Joyce and Máirtín Ó Cadhain is examined through the lens of language, change, and the past, revealing a shared preoccupation with the provisionality of the self.
This unique study offers valuable insights into Irish life and literature, as well as language and translation, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in these subjects.
