Description

Explore the complex relationship between national identity and gender in this scholarly work from Routledge. This book examines how nineteenth-century British writing addressed the concept of Irishness through the lens of womanhood. Using Lady Morgan's The Wild Irish Girl as a starting point, the text analyzes how the marriage of an Irish heroine to an Englishman served as a symbol for reimagining the connections between Ireland and Britain, as well as between men and women. The author investigates how debates regarding British national identity often centered on representations of Irish women. By tracing a genealogy of these developments, the book connects influential literary works ranging from Edgeworth's Castle Rackrent to Trollope's Irish novels. This study provides a deep look into how literary representations shaped political and social perceptions during a transformative era in British and Irish history.
