Product Description

The Famine Diaspora and Irish American Womens Writing considers the works of eleven North American female authors who wrote for or descended from the Irish Famine generation: Anna Dorsey, Christine Faber, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Mother Jones, Kate Kennedy, Margaret Dixon McDougall, Mary Meaney, Alice Nolan, Fanny Parnell, Mary Anne Sadlier, and Elizabeth Hely Walshe. This collection examines the ways the writings of these women contributed significantly to the construction of Irish North-American identities, and played a crucial role in the dissemination of Famine memories transgenerationally as well as transnationally. The included annotated excerpts from these women writers works and the accompanying essays by prominent international scholars offer insights on the sociopolitical position of the Irish in North America, their connections with the homeland, womens activities in transnational (often Catholic) publishing networks and women writers mediation of Irelands cultural heritage. Furthermore, the volume illustrates the generic variety of Irish American womens writing of the Famine generation, which comprises political treatises, novels, short stories and poetry, and bears witness to these female authors profound engagement with political and social issues, such as the conditions of the poor and womans vote.
