Writing Lough Derg: From William Carleton to Seamus Heaney - Irish Studies
Peggy O'Brien
Aims to show how a discrete tradition of writing about Lough Derg helped contemporary Irish poets rescue, metaphysical inquiry from the grip of nationalism. Surveying literary treatments of Lough Derg, this work addresses the role of spirituality in an increasingly cosmopolitan, postmodern, post-Catholic Ireland.
