Through reflection on these canonical writers and ranging across thirteen Shakespeare plays, Taylor-Collins demonstrates how Irish writers who helped to fashion and critique the Irish nation state carry an indelible, if often subdued, mark of Shakespeare's early modern English influence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume overall renews and revitalises the Shakespeare-modern Ireland connection: Taylor-Collins reveals Hamlet's hauntological legacy in Playboy of the Western World, Ulysses, and Ghosts; how the corporal economies that exert pressure from Coriolanus and Ben Jonson flicker through to the antiheroes in Beckett's Three Novels; and how the landed legacies of territorial contests in Shakespeare are engaged with in Yeats's poetry, and similarly how the diseased muddiness in Hamlet is addressed by Heaney.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNicholas Taylor-Collins is Senior Lecturer of English at Cardiff Metropolitan University\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50389729378578,"sku":"9781526149619","price":135.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_7b2e6f53-2dc8-48a2-a24f-232d59e9a67f.jpg?v=1728928248","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/shakespeare-memory-and-modern-irish-literature-9781526149619","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
