Excess in Modern Irish Writing: Spirit and Surplus - New Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature
Michael McAteer
This book examines the topic of excess in modern Irish writing in terms of mysticism, materialism, myth and language. The readings presented illustrate how Matthew Arnold’s nineteenth-century idea of the excessive character of the Celt is itself exceeded within the modernity of twentieth-century Irish writing.
