About This Item
London: Allen Lane, 1993. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo. Full green cloth, gold lettering to upper spine. xvii, 382 pp. Bruise to spine foot, else fine. Dust jacket stained to spine foot, a few light bumps. In these essays, Roy Foster explores the patterns of resentment, exploitation, dependence, and rejection which were created by centuries of proximity, colonization, and emigration. Often seen through the individual experiences of people 'caught' between England and Ireland, these intersections also cut across subjects like the representation of the Irish in Victorian journalism and fiction, the roots of constitutional nationalist agitation, and the making of literary reputations.
