| dc.description.abstract | This thesis explores the relationship between form in the writing of Irish poet
Brendan Kennelly and social change in Ireland between 1980 and 2000. Using
the ideas of postmodern theorists including Jean-Frangois Lyotard, Fredric
Jameson, and Charles Jencks, I employ a number of close readings in order to
illustrate how Kennelly subverts traditional narrative and poetic forms and treats
Irish national symbols, themes, historical and popular narratives in a way that
encourages his readers to reevaluate them again and again. | |
