TEKMOVANJE PREPORODOV: Primerjava gelskega in irskega literarnega preporoda skozi dela Ó Conaira in Synga

Rolih, Eva (avtor), Blake, Jason Frederick (mentor)

Namen magistrskega dela je proučiti povezanost irskega literarnega preporoda in gelskega literarnega preporoda, ki sta se sočasno pojavila na Irskem konec 19. stoletja, skozi primerjavo del ključnih avtorjev obeh literarnih gibanj, in sicer Johna Millingtona Synga (In the Shadow of the Glen, The Playboy of the Western World, The Tinker’s Wedding, The Well of the Saints, Riders to the Sea, Aran Islands) in Pádraica Ó Conaira (Exile, The Finest Stories). Kljub temu, da avtorja pripadata različnima literarnima gibanjema, je bilo v delih obeh moč zaznati lastnosti pozne romantike, socialnega realizma, naturalizma in modernizma. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da sta avtorja na podoben način obravnavala socialno problematiko Irske tistega časa. Podobnosti so bile ugotovljene tudi v izbiri tem in tipov protagonistov. Čeprav sta irski literarni preporod in gelski literarni preporod osnovana na različnih jezikih in različnih pojmovanjih irskosti, magistrsko delo dokazuje, da se pravzaprav ujemata v številnih vidikih.

Izvleček

The purpose of this MA thesis is to examine the connection between the two literary revivals that emerged in Ireland towards the end of the 19 th century (namely, the Irish literary revival and the Gaelic literary revival), by comparing major works of the two seminal authors of their respective movements: John Millington Synge (In the Shadow of the Glen, The Playboy of the Western World, The Tinker’s Wedding, The Well of the Saints, Riders to the Sea, Aran Islands) and Pádraic Ó Conaire (Exile, The Finest Stories). The thesis confirms the similarities between the two authors regarding European literary influences (Late Romanticism, Social Realism, Naturalism, Modernism), their treatment of social issues, common themes, and protagonist types. Despite the movements were revolved around separate languages and concept of Irishness, the thesis successfully draws parallels between the Irish literary revival and the nativist and progressive strands of Gaelic literary revival.
