The Disappointed Bridge : Ireland and the Post-Colonial World PDF
by Richard Pine
Description
This original study is the first major critical appraisal of Ireland's post-colonial experience in relation to that of other emergent nations.
The parallels between Ireland, India, Latin America, Africa and Europe establish bridges in literary and musical contexts which offer a unique insight into independence and freedom, and the ways in which they are articulated by emergent nations.
They explore the master-servant relationship, the functions of narrative, and the concepts of nationalism, map-making, exile, schizophrenia, hybridity, magical realism and disillusion.
The author offers many incisive answers to the question: What happens to an emerging nation after it has emerged?
