Ferris offers the first full-length study of the chief genre to emerge out of the political problem of Union: the national tale, an intercultural and mostly female-authored fictional mode that articulated Irish grievances to English readers. Ferris draws on current theory and archival research to show how the national tale crucially intersected with other public genres such as travel narratives, critical reviews and political discourse. In this fascinating study, Ferris shows how the national tales of Morgan, Edgeworth, Maturin, and the Banim brothers dislodged key British assumptions and foundational narratives of history, family and gender in the period.Cambridge studies in Romanticism ;51.The Romantic National Tale & the Question of IrelandEnglish fictionIrish authorsHistory and criticismNationalism and literatureIrelandHistory19th centuryEnglish fiction19th centuryHistory and criticismNationalism in literatureRomanticismIrelandIrish questionIrelandIntellectual life19th centuryIrelandIn literatureEnglish fictionIrish authorsHistory and criticism.Nationalism and literatureHistoryEnglish fictionHistory and criticism.Nationalism in literature.RomanticismIrish question.820.9358Ferris Ina1026691UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450342603321The romantic national tale and the question of Ireland2441746UNINA
