Retrato de jovem mulher sobre fundo alegórico : Austin Clarke, a Irlanda e o corpo

The search for specific features of an Irish cultural and literary identity takes an important step forward in Austin Clarke's «The Young Woman of Beare»: this can be seen in the rewriting of a põem from the Gaelic tradition, in its relocation in the historie time chosen by Ciarke for the enhanced portrayal of confliets central to the Irish consciousness, and in the expression of a committed and libertarian att...

A voyage to the country of the Houyhnhnms : ironia e arte satírica

The author tries to account for the controversy surrounding the fourth Voyage in Swift's Gulliver's Travels, by pointing out the clash between the consequences of sustained irony and the demands of satire, and its expression in specific narrative strategies.

The Great Hunger : anti-pastoralismo e representações da morte

The best known long poem by the Irish poet Patrick Kavanagh (1904-1967) presents a natural and human landscape of denial, misery and barrenness within a net of references which ranges from the Bible to Irish history and the Irish coutryside, the inversion of pastoral convention supports a violently disillusioned portrayal of rural existence and the peasant characteristic of part of Kavanagh's work and some post...

Misogyny or Misanthropy : the doubtful case of Ben Jonhson´s Epicoene

As its title suggests, Ben Jonson´s comedy Epicoene, or The Silent Woman lays a crucial emphasis on women´s identity and behaviour. Women in this play are satirized both as voluble embodiments of falsehood or depravity and as the agents of a ´monstrous´ and incompetently pursued will to power. But male characters also conspicuously fail to take on a normative status - as they are found to be either ´unnatural´ ...
