“‘We can’t do without Ulster, and she’ll find out the same about us some day!’: An All-Island View of Irish Women’s Partition Fiction.”
Dr. Dawn Miranda Sherratt-Bado will discuss fiction by women who experienced the partitioning of Ireland, tracing how they chronicle this period of revolutionary history and envision alternate futures. Her talk covers well-known writers Elizabeth Bowen, Dorothy Macardle, and Edith Somerville, alongside lesser-known authors such as Donegal-born Margaret Barrington. |
