Building (in) the Promised Land

Postcolonial Biblical Readings of Contemporary Irish Drama (2000-2015)

Produktform: Buch / Einband - fest (Hardcover)

This book offers new close readings of contemporary Irish drama in the context of postcolonial Biblical studies. Developing Christopher Morash’s historiographical metaphor of Babel, it combines appropriations of this and other selected Biblical themes of building found in plays by such authors as Malachy McKenna (Tillsonburg), Dermot Bolger (Ballymun Trilogy), Stacey Gregg (Shibboleth), Richard Dormer (Drum Belly) or Sebastian Barry (Tales of Ballycumber). The monograph explores the stances contributed by key scholars specialising in Irish drama and theatre (Christopher Morash, Shaun Richards, Helen Heusner Lojek), draws on the most recent findings within postcolonial Biblical criticism and touches upon the assumptions of subcreation studies (Mark J. P. Wolf).weiterlesen
