Erin och Lochlann : poetiska speglingar av Irlands vikingatid

Erin och Lochlann : poetiska speglingar av Irlands vikingatid

Alan Crozier

Bokförlaget Faethon
2024
nidottu
Vikingatiden var en period med långvariga kontakter mellan gaeler och skandinaver mellan folket på Erin och främlingarna som kom seglande från det nordliga Lochlann för att plundra, handla och grunda Irlands första städer. Dessa kontakter har ofta skildrats av historiker, men den här boken fokuserar på hur ämnet har behandlats i poesi av samtida iriska barder och norröna skalder men även av moderna poeter som skriver på engelska. Två gestalter återkommer som Irlands främsta försvarare mot nordmännen: Brian Bóruma, en historisk kung som år 1014 segrade i slaget vid Clontarf, och Finn mac Cumaill, en ren sagohjälte som är huvudpersonen i en rik berättelsecykel.Boken inleds med en allmän presentation av den tidiga poesin som skrevs på forniriska. Vi ser även hur dessa vackra dikter har översatts till engelska och inspirerat poeter ända sedan Irlands litterära renässans tog sin början under 1800-talet. Nyckel­figurer här är George Sigerson, William Butler Yeats, Oliver St. John Gogarty, James Joyce, Flann OBrien och Seamus Heaney. Alan Crozier är fil. dr. i germansk filologi och översättare. Han har översatt en lång rad akademiska böcker och artiklar från svenska, norska och danska till engelska. Detta är den första bok där han själv står som författare, och här gör han dessutom svenska tolkningar av dikter på iriska, isländska, fornfranska och medeltidslatin. Denna översikt är den första i sitt slag på svenska. Dess långa historiska perspektiv och omfattande litterära källmaterial visar inte bara en tusenårig litterär traditions rikedom utan också dess återklanger i vår moderna litteratur. Boken är därtill rikligt illustrerad.

Erin's Heirs

Erin's Heirs

Dennis Clark

The University Press of Kentucky
2009
nidottu
"They will melt like snowflakes in the sun," said one observer of nineteenth-century Irish emigrants to America. Not only did they not melt, they formed one of the most extensive and persistent ethnic subcultures in American history. Dennis Clark now offers an insightful analysis of the social means this group has used to perpetuate its distinctiveness amid the complexity of American urban life. Basing his study on family stories, oral interviews, organizational records, census data, radio scripts, and the recollections of revolutionaries and intellectuals, Clark offers an absorbing panorama that shows how identity, organization, communication, and leadership have combined to create the Irish-American tradition. In his pages we see gifted storytellers, tough dockworkers, scribbling editors, and colorful actresses playing their roles in the Irish-American saga. As Clark shows, the Irish have defended and extended their self-image by cultivating their ethnic identity through transmission of family memories and by correcting community portrayals of themselves in the press and theatre. They have strengthened their ethnic ties by mutual association in the labor force and professions and in response to social problems. And they have created a network of communications ranging from 150 years of Irish newspapers to America's longest-running ethnic radio show and a circuit of university teaching about Irish literature and history. From this framework of subcultural activity has arisen a fascinating gallery of leadership that has expressed and symbolized the vitality of the Irish-American experience. Although Clark draws his primary material from Philadelphia, he relates it to other cities to show that even though Irish communities have differed they have shared common fundamentals of social development. His study constitutes a pathbreaking theoretical explanation of the dynamics of Irish-American life.

Receiving Erin's Children

Receiving Erin's Children

Gallman J. Matthew

The University of North Carolina Press
2000
nidottu
Between 1845 and 1855, 2 million Irish men and women fled their famine-ravaged homeland, many to settle in large British and American cities that were already wrestling with a complex array of urban problems. In this innovative work of comparative urban history, Matthew Gallman looks at how two cities, Philadelphia and Liverpool, met the challenges raised by the influx of immigrants. Gallman examines how citizens and policymakers in Philadelphia and Liverpool dealt with such issues as poverty, disease, poor sanitation, crime, sectarian conflict, and juvenile delinquency. By considering how two cities of comparable population and dimensions responded to similar challenges, he sheds new light on familiar questions about distinctive national characteristics--without resorting to claims of ""American exceptionalism."" In this critical era of urban development, English and American cities often evolved in analogous ways, Gallman notes. But certain crucial differences--in location, material conditions, governmental structures, and voluntaristic traditions, for example--inspired varying approaches to urban problem solving on either side of the Atlantic. |This work of comparative history looks at how two rapidly growing cities, Philadelphia and Liverpool, coped with the urban challenges raised by the influx of Irish immigrants in the mid-nineteenth century.
