After a decade in which women writers have gradually been given more recognition in the study of Irish literature this collection proposes a reappraisal of Irish women's writing by inviting dialogues with new or hitherto marginalised critical frameworks as well as with foreign and transnational literary traditions. Several essays explore how Irish women writers engaged with European themes and traditions through the genres of travel writing the historical novel the monologue and the fairy tale. Other contributions are concerned with the British context in which some texts were published and argue for the existence of Irish inflections of phenomena such as the New Woman suffragism or vegetarianism. Further chapters emphasise the transnational character of Irish women's writing by applying continental theory and French feminist thinking to various texts in other chapters new developments in theory are applied to Irish texts for the first time. Casting the efforts of Irish women in a new light the collection also includes explorations of the work of neglected or emerging authors who have remained comparatively ignored by Irish literary criticism.
