One of Ireland's foremost literary and cultural historians, Terence Brown's command of the intellectual and cultural currents running through the Irish literary canon is second to none, and he has been enormously influential in shaping the field of Irish studies. These essays reflect the key themes of Brown's distinguished career, most crucially his critical engagement with the post-colonial model of Irish cultural and literary history currently …
The Irish Dylan Thomas
This essay considers the impact of Dylan Thomas on a number of Irish poets and how Thomas has been represented in the critical observations and writings of these poets.
