Conclusion. 330 $aThis book addresses both the dissemination and increased understanding of the specificity of Irish literature in Italy during the first half of the twentieth century. This period was a crucial time of nation-building for both countries. Antonio Bibbò illustrates the various images of Ireland that circulated in Italy, focusing on political and cultural discourses and examines the laborious formation of an Irish literary canon in Italy. The center of this analysis relies on books and articles on Irish politics, culture, and literature produced in Italy, including pamplets, anthologies, literary histories, and propaganda; translations of texts by Irish writers; and archival material produced by writers, publishers, and cultural and political institutions. Bibbò argues that the construction of different and often conflicting ideas of Ireland in Italy as well as the wavering understanding of the distinctiveness of Irish culture, substantially affected the Italian responses to Irish writers and their presence within the Italian publishing field. This book contributes to the discussion on transnational aspects of canon formation, reception studies, and Italian cultural studies. Antonio Bibbò is Lecturer in English and Translation at the University of Trento, Italy. He has translated works by Woolf, Defoe, Wilde and Pound. 410 0$aNew Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature,$x2731-3190 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y20th century 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 606 $aEuropean Literature 606 $aComparative Literature 606 $aEuropean History 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 14$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aEuropean History. 676 $a820.809415 676 $a820.99415 700 $aBibbo?$b Antonio$01079147 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910523783703321 996 $aIrish Literature in Italy in the Era of the World Wars$92591569 997 $aUNINA
