Haunted English: The Celtic Fringe, the British Empire, and De-Anglicization

Thu, 24 Apr 2025
Haunted English explores the complex relationship between the English language and the literary expressions of Anglo-Celtic modernists like Yeats, MacDiarmid, and Moore, focusing on how colonial history and de-Anglicization movements influenced their work. The text examines the concept of the "Celtic Fringe" as a phantasmatic space shaped by translation and ethnography, highlighting the power dynamics between English and Gaelic/Scots. It analyzes how these writers engaged with themes of national identity, language, and cultural memory, often through the lens of folklore, mythology, and linguistic innovation. The study investigates their efforts to create distinct literary voices within or against the dominant English linguistic and cultural landscape. Ultimately, the book illuminates how the "haunting" presence of suppressed Celtic languages and cultures shaped the English used by these significant modern writers.

Harm's Way: Tragic Responsibility and the Novel Form

Thu, 24 Apr 2025
This scholarly work, Harm's Way, examines the intricate relationship between accident, injury, and responsibility as depicted in the realist novel from the late seventeenth to the early nineteenth century. The author analyzes various literary works, including those by Defoe, Richardson, Fielding, and Sheridan, alongside legal concepts like strict liability, felony murder, and deodand. By exploring these connections, the book argues that the novel form grapples with questions of accountability in situations where intention and fault are ambiguous. Ultimately, the study illuminates how these literary and legal frameworks shape our understanding of personhood and responsibility in the face of unintended harm.
