Through a study of Irish poetry, plays, fiction, and film, this course will explore how the culture and history of Ireland is reflected in and has shaped the literature. Special attention will be paid to the various “spectres” of Ireland—the vampire, the fairy, and the ghost—and how these figures reflect a literary preoccupation with issues of memory, representation, and cultural trauma.
The Pub
Welcome to "the pub." Here, students can use the comment function to post questions about the course and assignments, seek clarification, collaborate, provide ideas, discuss off-topic issues, or otherwise share in some "craic" (Irish for "good times"). This is a student-centered forum, but I will be checking in periodically.
