Year: 2006
Type: dissertation
Abstract: This study examines the various representations of place by Irish writers who\npublished English language novels between 1929-1939. The aim of the study was to\nexplore the various affective and subjective dimensions of place experience, as well as\nthe different 'personalities of place,' depicted in novels, and other associated pieces of\nliterature during this period in modem Irish history. The readings of these works have\nbeen placed in the context of accepted historical and cultural narratives of Ireland in\nthe 1930s. A hermeneutic analysis was focused through five theoretical lenses,\ndeveloped specifically for this study.
