This volume reflects on the pressing questions for Irish literary studies now. Contributors challenge prevailing assumptions within the field, seek to displace the canon, and define alternative paths. From queer studies to transnationalism, from #MeToo to the politics of representing disability, this collection opens up the institution of Irish criticism and considers the ethical challenges and opportunities for scholars working in the field today from concerns with identity politics to questions of form. Moreover, the collection reflects on where we have come from and the development of Irish studies both in the Irish University Review and internationally in Asia, Australasia, Europe, and South America.

Overview of 50 years of Irish studies in the Irish University Review
What happens when cultural memory becomes a commodity? Who owns the memory? In The Memory Marketplace, Emilie Pine explores how memory is performed both in Ireland and abroad by considering the significant body of contemporary Irish theatre that contends with its own culture and history. Analyzing examples from this realm of theatre, Pine focuses on the idea of witnesses, both as performers on stage and as members of the audience. Whose memories are observed in these transactions, and how and why do performances prioritize some memories over others? What does it mean to create, rehearse, perform, and purchase the theatricalization of memory? The Memory Marketplace shows this transaction to be particularly fraught in the theatricalization of traumatic moments of cultural upheaval, such as the child sexual abuse scandal in Ireland. In these performances, the role of empathy becomes key within the marketplace dynamic, and Pine argues that this empathy shapes the kinds of witnesses created. The complexities and nuances of this exchange--subject and witness, spectator and performer, consumer and commodified--provide a deeper understanding of the crucial role theatre plays in shaping public understanding of trauma, memory, and history.

Описание: The international sensation that illuminates the experiences women are supposed to hide--from addiction, anger, sexual assault, and infertility to joy, sensuality, and love."Unsparing . . . equally raw and harrowing . . . the kind of book you want to give to everyone."--The Irish Times In this dazzling debut, Emilie Pine speaks to the events that have marked her life--those emotional disruptions for which our society has no adequate language, at once bittersweet, clandestine, and ordinary. She writes with radical honesty on the unspeakable grief of infertility, on caring for an alcoholic parent, on taboos around female bodies and female pain, on sexual violence and violence against the self. This is the story of one woman, and of all women. Devastating, poignant, and wise--and joyful against the odds--Notes to Self is an unforgettable exploration of what it feels like to be alive, and a daring act of rebellion against a society that is more comfortable with women's silence. Praise for Notes to Self "To read these essays is to understand the human condition more clearly, to reassess one's place in the world, and to reclaim one's own experiences as real and valid."--Sunday Independent "Harrowing, clear-eyed . . . Everyone should consider this] priority reading."--Sunday Business Post
"Incredible and insightful--an absolute must-read."--The Skinny "Absolutely superb."--Irish Examiner "In turn heart breaking and heart mending, raw and searingly honest."--RT "Agonizing, uncompromising, starkly brilliant. . . . A] short, gleamingly instructive book, both memoir and psychological exploration--a platform for that insistent internal voice that almost any woman . . . wishes they had ignored."--Financial Times "Do not read this book in public: it will make you cry."--Anne Enright "Emilie Pine's voice is razor-sharp and raw; her story is utterly original yet as familiar as my own breath. Both timeless and urgent, Notes to Self is my favorite memoir of the year--I will be giving copies of this stunning book to all of my friends."--Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love Warrior
