1. Introduction: Shakespeare, Ireland and the Contemporary; Nicholas Taylor-Collins and Stanley van der Ziel -- 2. ‘memory like mitigation’: Heaney, Shakespeare and Ireland; Rui Carvalho Homem -- 3. ‘an inconstant stay’: Paul Muldoon, Seamus Heaney and the Ends of Shakespeare’s Sonnets; Tom Walker -- 4. Moving the Statue: Myths of Motherhood in Eavan Boland, Shakespeare and Early Modern Culture; Nicholas Taylor-Collins -- 5. ‘This rough magic’: Late Derek Mahon and Late Shakespeare; Sarah Bennett -- 6. What Ish My language? The Politics of Translation in Brian Friel’s Translations and Shakespeare’s Henry Plays; Anthony Roche -- 7. Conjuring Ghosts: Shakespeare, Dramaturgy and the Plays of Frank McGuinness; Anne Fogarty -- 8. ‘Filial ingratitude’: Marina Carr’s Bond with Shakespeare; Willy Maley and Stanley van der Ziel -- 9. McGahern’s Lear, or: Tragedy in the Barracks; Stanley van der Ziel -- 10. Performing Prospero: Intertextual Strategies in John Banville’s Ghosts; Elke D’hoker.

This book shows that Shakespeare continues to influence contemporary Irish literature, through postcolonial, dramaturgical, epistemological and narratological means. International critics examine a range of contemporary writers including Eavan Boland, Marina Carr, Brian Friel, Seamus Heaney, John McGahern, Frank McGuinness, Derek Mahon and Paul Muldoon, and explore Shakespeare’s tragedies, histories and comedies, as well as his sonnets. Together, the chapters demonstrate that Shakespeare continues to exert a pressure on Irish writing into the twenty-first century, sometimes because of and sometimes in spite of the fact that his writing is inextricably tied to the Elizabethan and Jacobean colonization of Ireland. Contemporary Irish writers appropriate, adopt, adapt and strategize through their engagements with Shakespeare, and indeed through his own engagement with the world around him four hundred years ago.
