From its starting point with the 'New Irish' generation of poets in the United States during the 1980s and concluding with the technological innovations of 21st-century poetry, this study spans continents, generations, genders and sexualities to reconsider the role of memory and of migration in the work of a range of contemporary Irish poets. Combining sensitive close readings and textual analysis with thorough theoretical application, it sets out the formal, thematic, socio-cultural and literary contexts of migration as an essential aspect of Irish literature. This book is essential reading for literary critics, academics, cultural commentators and students with an interest in contemporary poetry, Irish studies, diaspora studies and memory studies.New Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature,2731-3190European literaturePoetryLiterature, Modern20th centuryLiterature, Modern21st centuryEuropean LiteraturePoetry and PoeticsContemporary LiteratureEuropean literature.Poetry.Literature, ModernLiterature, ModernEuropean Literature.Poetry and Poetics.Contemporary Literature.809.41McDaid Ailbheauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut887217BOOK9910255090803321The Poetics of Migration in Contemporary Irish Poetry1982025UNINA
