The text of the tales themselves has been reproduced from the Parlour Library edition, Simms & M'Intyre, London, 1851. Gerald Griffin's "Introduction" and "Conclusion" have been reprinted from the first edition of the work, published by Sauders & Otley Ltd., London, 1829 (3 volumes). The present reprinting, therefore, offers in a single volume the work substantially as it appeared in its original three-volume form. It makes available once again two of Gerald Griffin's most characteristic tales which were originally published just after his great success with his most celebrated novel, The Collegians. Dr John Cronin, Senior Lecturer in English at the Queen's University, Belfast, is the author of Sommerville and Ross, Bucknell University Press, 1972. his Gerald Griffin 1803-1840: A Critical Biography will be published in 1978 by the Cambridge University Press.
The Irish contribution to Australian history goes both deep and wide. Originally published in 1986 the essays in this collection contribute both to the understanding of Ireland’s place in Australian history and to the interpretation of the Irish scene in the nineteenth century. Ranging from law to W. B. Yeats, and from monumental sculpture to violence and crime, the papers reflect the diversity of the Irish-Australian experience and the persistence of a distinctively Irish culture even when transported across the world.
Silence in Modern Irish Literature is the first book to focus exclusively on the treatment of silence in modern Irish literature. It reveals the wide spectrum of meanings that silence carries in modern Irish literature: a mark of historical loss, a form of resistance to authority, a force of social oppression, a testimony to the unspeakable, an expression of desire, a style of contemplation. This volume addresses silence in psychological, ethical, topographical, spiritual and aesthetic terms in works by a range of major authors including Yeats, Joyce, Beckett, Bowen and Friel.
