For different reasons, both factions noisily condemned such modern vulgarities as tabloid journalism, Hollywood movies, music halls, bodice-rippers, and penny dreadfuls. The iconic figure of the young, female, Catholic reader loomed large in these invectives, with Catholic nationalists campaigning to preserve her purity while cultural nationalists bemoaned her seduction by the international culture industry. Boynton explores the relationship between these religious and gender pieties of the nationalist movement on the one hand and the emergence of Irish modernism on the other, tracing through the works of early, high, and late modernists – from W.B. Yeats to Samuel Beckett – a set of heretical strategies that challenge the representation of this consumer demographic as “pure, pious, and simple.”","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121451097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mesmerised by these nauseating details, critics have tended to overlook Keane’s affirmation of the pleasures of food and its redemptive value for her Anglo-Irish heroines, trapped as they are in the crumbling Big Houses of the moribund Protestant Ascendancy. Keane insists on the uncomfortably close relationship between the grotesque and the delicious in a context where denial of physical pleasure and suppression of appetite are important markers of class and gender, as elements of good behaviour. In Keane’s Big Houses, women seek out forbidden food as private consolation for their confinement and alienation.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121496470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The funniest of Wilde’s plays, Earnest satirizes the subterfuge (‘Bunburying’) demanded of sexual heretics in Victorian society, where marginal identities and desires were excluded, suppressed, or in Wilde’s case, brutally penalized. Conrad investigates Wilde’s ambivalent attitude to direct revolutionary action such as the Fenian dynamite campaign of 1881-85 and French anarchist activities of the 1890s, attending particularly to the 1884 bomb explosion in the cloakroom at Victoria Station, the ‘terminus’ where Miss Prism left the infant Jack Worthing in a handbag containing her three-decker novel. As Conrad argues, ‘texts, bodies, and bombs all meet at Victoria Station’, and Wilde, as an Irishman and a homosexual, could himself be seen as ‘a potential bomb right at the terminus of Victorian society’.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"141 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129136963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Written in both Irish and English and often juxtaposing these languages in a single instalment or transliterating one into the orthography of the other, Cruiskeen Lawn makes fun of nationalist piety about the Irish language, debunking the idea of a purely Irish voice. The column’s polyglot, polyvocal play mocks the idea of national or linguistic isolation, thereby challenging Eamon de Valera’s isolationist policy of neutrality in World War II. Heretical to nativism in its use of modernist polyglossia and fragmentation, Cruiskeen Lawn is also heretical to modernism insofar as it ‘moves outside of literary genres, and outside of the available genres of the newspaper, excerpting the discourse of its day and amplifying, distorting, and subverting it through linguistic play’.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130000232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Theorising Irish-Language Modernism: Voicing Precarity 爱尔兰语现代主义理论化:表达不稳定性

Taking up Robert Flaherty’s fictionalized docudrama Man of Aran, a highly romanticized portrait of the Aran islanders’ manly struggle for survival in a rugged, unforgiving landscape, McKibben shows that these islanders were much less insulated from modernity than the film acknowledges. But the film also suppresses the very hallmark of their supposed archaic authenticity: the Irish language. McKibben compares this ‘devoicing’ to Pádraic Ó Conaire’s 1910 novella in Irish, Deoraíocht (‘Exile’), a ‘gap-ridden’ text recounting the misfortunes of an Irish-speaking immigrant in London. The chapter concludes with a succinct account of the tribulations of the Irish language from the time of the Great Famine, when the language was nearly wiped out as a consequence of mass starvation and emigration, to the late nineteenth century, when Revivalist efforts to forge a new literary tradition out of a language deemed defunct undercut the orthodox identification of ‘progress’ with the English language and the British state.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"27 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121011459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The early years of the twentieth century saw a renewed focus on the applied arts – including metalwork, stained glass, tapestries, and printed materials – designed and made for Catholic churches, state buildings, even domestic patrons. Such art reflected existing tensions between conservatism and innovation, by turns echoing and challenging competing cultural nationalist views. The work of Harry Clarke, Evie Hone, the Cuala Press, and others combined traditional materials, skills, and Irish symbolism with innovative aesthetics and sometimes shocking or offensive scenes of modern Irish life. Though church and state institutions that had briefly supported such cultural nationalist work ultimately came to view it as heretical, the chapter demonstrates the profound influence of such work on Irish visual arts modernism.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120872487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Legacies of Land and Soil: Irish Drama, European Integration and the Unfinished Business of Modernism 土地与土壤的遗产:爱尔兰戏剧、欧洲一体化与现代主义未完成的事业

Townsend argues that rural dramas such as Rutherford Mayne’s play Red Turf (1911), Padraic Colum’s The Land (1905), and T.C. Murray’s Birthright (1910) commit heresy against the pieties of cultural nationalism by positing material security rather than spiritual inheritance as the foundation for a prosperous Irish future. Largely neglected by literary criticism, these plays also challenge the orthodox story of modernism whereby old-fashioned realism is superseded by avant-garde experiment, much as the rural is superseded the urban. Often performed in the same venues as contemporary avant-garde plays, Irish rural dramas demonstrate that modernism did not progress in a straight line but along multiple intersecting paths.","PeriodicalId":371259,"journal":{"name":"The Edinburgh Companion to Irish Modernism","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115122162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Later, however, they promoted a nationalist orthodoxy intended to shape ideology domestically and perception of Ireland internationally, after the foundation of the Free State. Ulin examines the complex political constraints that stifled innovations in philatelic design and prevented postage stamps from emulating modernist experiments in print culture and modern design.
