    David Squires deposited Roger Casement’s Queer Archive in the group Group logo of LLC IrishLLC Irish on MLA Commons 4 years, 7 months ago

    Growing interest in the archive as an object of study for queer criticism justifies closer attention to the concept of provenance. For archivists, provenance imparts a fundamental measure of integrity to archival collections by certifying their origin and proper order. Record origin and order, however, rely on authorial identity to establish…[Read more]

    Matthew Reznicek deposited A City She Must Postpone: The Parisian Geography of Kate O’Brien’s Bildungsromane in the group Group logo of LLC IrishLLC Irish on MLA Commons 4 years, 10 months ago

    By reading each of the novels of Kate O’Brien’s oeuvre as ‘a travel story’, just as we read Balzac’s Père Goriot, it becomes necessary to read them as ‘a spatial practice’, a narrative that locates itself in and responds to a specific space. The specific geography of Kate O’Brien’s Parisian novels of development, Without My Cloak (1931), The…[Read more]

    James Gifford deposited “Per omnia saecula saeculorum” or “Inkaba yakho iphi?”: Indigeneity in Alex La Guma and Aidan Higgins in the group Group logo of LLC IrishLLC Irish on MLA Commons 7 years, 4 months ago

    This article argues for an overlapping notion of indigeneity in Alex La Guma’s In the Fog of the Seasons’ End and Aidan Higgins’ Langrishe, Go Down articulated using critical Aboriginal Studies while exploring the materialist emergence of identity. The key tension, then, is not between both authors’ progressive politics nor the real differences b…[Read more]

    Jeremy Colangelo deposited The Grotesque Gigantic: Stephen Hero, Maximalism, and Bakhtin in the group Group logo of LLC IrishLLC Irish on MLA Commons 7 years, 10 months ago

    My intention is to reorient Stephen Hero’s position in Joyce’s oeuvre, viewing it not simply as a precursor to A Portrait but instead as a first attempt at the kind of expansive narrative Joyce would undertake in Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. What I wish to narrate is not primarily the story of Stephen Hero’s failure, but instead the story of how J…[Read more]
