The Cambridge History of the Irish Novel, Gebunden

Klappentext

The Cambridge History of the Irish Novel appears at a moment when the novel in Ireland is particularly vibrant, with new work by Irish novelists achieving global prominence. The Cambridge History of the Irish Novel offers the first full multi-author survey of the Irish novel to extend from the earliest Irish novels in the seventeenth century to the present. Each of its forty-seven chapters is written by a leading scholar in the field. Cutting across this chronological organisation, The Cambridge History of the Irish Novel also features more than 300 internal cross-references, allowing the reader to track, for instance, the recurrence of the gothic, or the transnational, across genres, across readerships, and across centuries. As such, The Cambridge History of the Irish Novel provides, quite simply, the most extensive view of one of the world's great cultures of the novel.
