Wilde the IrishmanJerusha Hull McCormack Yale University Press, 1998 M01 1 - 205 páginas While the contributors to this volume reach a consensus about the essential Irishness of Wilde, they subvert the comfortable categories in which Wilde generally has been placed and highlight the difficulties of evaluating him within a cultural context. The book sets Wilde within the tradition of other formidable Irish writers, including Joyce, Beckett, Shaw, and Yeats - a tradition from which he has been previously excluded - and restores him to his rightful place as an Irish writer of rare, if not uncomplicated, distinction. |
