(anglicised as .The Islandman.), an indigenous Irish-language memoir written by Tomás Ó Criomhthain (Tomás O‘Crohan), Máiréad Nic Craith charts the development of Ó Criomhthain as an author; the writing, illustration, and publication of the memoir in Irish; and the reaction to its portrayal of an authentic, Gaelic lifestyle in Ireland. As she probes the appeal of an island fisherman’s century-old life-story to readers in several languages—considering the memoir’s global reception in human, literary and artistic terms—Nic Craith uncovers the indelible marks of Ó Criomhthain’s writing closer to home: the Blasket Island Interpretive Centre, which seeks to institutionalize the experience evoked by the memoir, and a widespread writerly habit amongst the diasporic population of the Island. Through the overlapping frames of literary analysis, archival work, interviews, and ethnographic examination, nostalgia emerges and re-emerges as a central theme, expressed in different ways by the young Irish state, by Irish-American descendants of Blasket Islanders in the US today, by anthropologists, and beyond.. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Tomás Ó Criomhthain; Ethnographic memoir; Irish heritage; Great Blasket Island; Social life; histrorical | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-25775-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-25774-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-25775-0Series ISSN 2946-4218 Series E-ISSN 2946-4226 | issn_series | 2946-4218 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
