Poetry and plantation in early modern Ireland
This essay explores early modern Anglophone poetry on Ireland, touching on neglected metrical innovators like Richard Stanihurst, an audacious translator of Virgil, as well as more familiar figures such as Spenser, Milton, and Marvell. Plantation poetry provides fresh angles on the ways in which an adverse Irish context could produce poetry that was both impactful and experimental. Joad Raymond’s idea of “The Daily Muse,” or poetry as journalism,…
Editing Archipelagic Shakespeare
Editing Archipelagic Shakespeare is a study of the power of names; more specifically, it is about the power of naming, asking who gets to choose names, for what reason, and to what effect. Shakespeare assigns names to over 1,200 characters and countless more sites and places, and these names, or versions of these names, have become familiar to generations of playgoers and play-readers. And because of their familiarity, Shakespeare's names, most f…
Double Dutch
The article focuses on two Dutch doctors – the Boate brothers, Arnold (1606-1653) and Gerard (1604-1650) – medical graduates of Leiden University who moved to London in 1630 to work as practising physicians. The brothers contributed to diverse forms of knowledge as part of the new science, including agriculture, anatomy, entomology, geography, industrial history, medicine, metallurgy, mineralogy and theology, but are known primarily for Gerard’s …
Winston Churchill’s Divi Britannici (1675) and Archipelagic Royalism
Divi Britannici (1675) is a major restoration history that deserves to be more widely known. The work’s author, Sir Winston Churchill (1620–1688), is certainly less well-known than his celebrated descendant of the same name. Seldom mentioned in discussions of seventeenth-century historiography, Divi Britannici can be read alongside contemporary histories, including John Milton’s History of Britain (1670). If British historians have generally over…
Drama out of a crisis
A distinctive strategy of remembrance in Irish historical drama is the depiction of a current crisis through allusion to another traumatic passage in the deep or recent past. In this essay we examine two relatively neglected Irish plays staged twenty years apart which were produced at key moments of reversal and reflection, and which concentrate on female agency, the cyclical Irish curse of betrayal, anxieties of masculinity, and the clash of mor…

The Agitator’s Wife” (1894)
The centenary of the Easter Rising in 2016 and the 150th anniversary of James Connolly’s birth in 2018 afford an ideal opportunity to reappraise this unique figure. Rightly renowned for his polemical journalism and political theory, Connolly is less celebrated for his creative writing. His 1916 play, Under Which Flag?, long considered lost, resurfaced fifty years ago without causing significant ripples in Irish literary circles, but interest in C…
What ish my network? Introducing Macmorris
Early modern Ireland is one of the most dynamic literary and political spaces in Renaissance Europe. It is the site of vibrant writing in English, Irish, and Latin and of translation from Latin, Spanish, and Italian into English and Irish. While it has received extensive critical attention from historicists, cultural materialists, feminists, and new‐British historians over the past three decades, their focus has been the colonial context of the E…
Neptune to the Common-wealth of England” (1652)
In the seventeenth century, John Kerrigan reminds us, “models of empire did not always turn on monarchy”. In this essay, I trace a vision of “Neptune’s empire” shared by royalists and republicans, binding English national interest to British overseas expansion. I take as my text a poem entitled “Neptune to the Common-wealth of England”, prefixed to Marchamont Nedham’s 1652 English translation of Mare Clausum (1635), John Selden’s response to Mare…

Shakespeare, Easter 1916, and the Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain
It is a commonplace to speak of the dramatic qualities of the Easter Rising; the staging of rebellions inevitably attracts theatrical comparisons. In the case of 1916, the dramatic aspect has arguably been overplayed. Either the focus is on amateur dramatics and improvization, with the Rising itself as a piece of theatre, which plays down the history and politics as well as the rich theatrical traditions behind the Rising, or the emphasis is on a…

Now traditions may, and frequently do, provide materials for a glorious martyrdom, but can never be strong enough to ride the storm of a successful revolution.If the national movement of our day is not merely to re-enact the old sad tragedies of our past history, it must show itself capable of rising to the exigencies of the moment.It must demonstrate to the people of Ireland that our nationalism is not merely a morbid idealizing of the past, but…

This essay maps out relations between Irish and Scottish modernism as part of a new area of comparative criticism, Irish-Scottish studies, which has implications not only for English literature, but for postcolonial theory, which has tended to be anglocentric in terms of its analyses of British and Irish paradigms. This intervention takes five major Irish and Scottish writers - Muir, Yeats, MacDiarmid, Joyce and Grassic Gibbon - and looks at how …

British Ill Done
This contribution to Literature Compass has a three‐fold purpose. First, it aims to do what it says in the title, and flag up recent approaches to British identities in Shakespeare studies. Secondly, it seeks to remind readers of an earlier and now largely forgotten tradition of nationalist criticism and scholarship preoccupied with the place of Britain – nation, state and empire – that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s. Thirdly, it endeavours to…

Nicholas Canny has reminded us that ‘Spenser’s Irish experience was essentially a Munster or even a Cork one.’ 1 Rudolf Gottfried writes: ‘Of the four provinces... Munster seems to be that with which the View shows the greatest direct familiarity.’ 2 Ciarán Brady has drawn our attention to the fact that two other major treatises of the period were composed ‘by the Munster planter Sir William Herbert... and the Munster civil administrator Richard …
Spenser’s Irish English
In this chapter I shall suggest that Spenser’s choice of ‘Chaucer’s English’, based upon a nationalistic literary revivalism, was also influenced by a variety of English which survived as a spoken language beyond the pale of the cultural metropolis, in the colonial margins. (Perhaps I should say at the outset that I am approaching this, not as a linguist, nor as a medievalist, but as a ‘cultural historian’.) Spenser’s Irish English, or Hiberno-En…
