Beschreibung:
Clíona Ní Ríordáin is Professor of English at Université Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3, France, where she teaches Irish literature and translation studies and directs the research group, ERIN (EA PRISMES 4398). Her recent publications include the anthology Jeune Poésie d'Irlande (2015), with Paul Bensimon, and Memoranda to MacNeice (2019) with Anne Goarzin.
This book looks at a cohort of poets who studied at University College Cork during the 1970s and early 1980s. Based on extensive interviews and archival work, the book examines the notion that the poets form a "generation" in sociological terms. It proposes an analysis of the work of the poets, studying the thematics and preoccupations that shape their oeuvre. Among the poets that figure in the book are Greg Delanty, Theo Dorgan, Seán Dunne, Gerry Murphy, Thomas McCarthy, Gregory O'Donoghue, and Maurice Riordan. The volume is prefaced by Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin.
Features a preface by Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, the current Ireland Professor of Poetry
