Arguing that a continuous renegotiation of memory is characteristic of Irish modernist writing, Miller investigates a series of case-studies in modern Irish historical imagination. He reassesses Ireland's self-construction through external or 'foreign' discourses such as the cinema, and proposes new readings of Yeats and Joyce as 'counter-memorialists'. Combining theoretical and historical approaches, Miller shows how the modernist handling of history transforms both memory and the story of the past by highlighting readers' investments in histories that are produced, specifically and concretely, through local acts of reading. This original study will attract scholars of Modernism, Irish studies, film and literary theory. 606 $aEnglish literature$xIrish authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aModernism (Literature)$zIreland 606 $aHistorical films$zIreland$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and history$zIreland 606 $aMotion pictures$zIreland 606 $aMemory in literature 607 $aIreland$xCivilization$y20th century 615 0$aEnglish literature$xIrish authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aHistorical films$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and history 615 0$aMotion pictures 615 0$aMemory in literature. 676 $a820.9/112/09417 700 $aMiller$b Nicholas Andrew$01646809 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817017803321 996 $aModernism, Ireland, and the erotics of memory$93994007 997 $aUNINA
