Excerpt from The Whiteboy, Vol. 2 of 2: A Story of Ireland, in 1822 There are hours during which we live years, if time be calculated by events - events that often make age a premature affliction, and not the natural issue of life. The gentleman whom, in compliance with his foster-brother's command, Murtogh had treated with so much care, had, in consequence of an accident - a fall from his horse, which compelled him to remain inactive and concealed - obtained abundant time to regret what he could not recall. He was one of many who are guided by impulse rather than reason - the impulse of a weak but generous nature - to force a people into struggles which happily they have had neither means nor strength to maintain.

The island of Ireland, north and south, has produced a great diversity of writing in both English and Irish for hundreds of years, often using the memories embodied in its competing views of history as a fruitful source of literary inspiration. Placing Irish literature in an international context, these two volumes explore the connection between Irish history and literature, in particular the Rebellion of 1798, in a more comprehensive, diverse and multi-faceted way than has often been the case in the past. The fifty-three authors bring their national and personal viewpoints as well as their critical judgements to bear on Irish literature in these stimulating articles. The contributions also deal with topics such as Gothic literature, ideology, and identity, as well as gender issues, connections with the other arts, regional Irish literature, in particular that of the city of Limerick, translations, the works of Joyce, and comparisons with the literature of other nations. The contributors are all members of IASIL (International Association for the Study of Irish Literatures). Back to the Present: Forward to the Past. Irish Writing and History since 1798 will be of interest to both literary scholars and professional historians, but also to the general student of Irish writing and Irish culture.
