Diplôme Master Transcending domestic space in contemporary Irish poetry : place and meaning in the poetry of Medbh McGuckian and Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin eng 2023-02-09 author Ruffieux Adrienne 691442 director Leer Martin Hugo 629926 Département de langue et littérature anglaises (ANGL1) 111 <p>This study analyses the function of domestic space in the poetry of Medbh McGuckian and Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin. A central motif in their work, the house appears as a liminal space, a site of otherness that conveys meaning differently. This research argues that to study the image of the house in their poetry is to study the relationship of the female poet with the world. By focusing on recurring images in their poetry – the female body and its relationship with the house, the interrelation of inside and outside - this study shows that domestic space appears as a threshold, a space that explores the limits and the differences between the self and the world.</p> Medbh McGuckian Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin Domestic space Contemporary Irish poetry Dewey 420/820 Maîtrise universitaire ès lettres - langue et littérature anglaises 84 Département de langue et de littérature anglaises 3B false 135d2b43-9b14-499f-a442-c2e0fae86fa7 Master thesis Public Domestic_space_aruffieux.pdf 752806 application/pdf 3353d6af5e68dd588aaac8b37eea1e26d93863ca8e45d636bc65208f6d1ee6fe 61981a03-774c-42a2-8383-40f79e32923d Agreement Private file.pdf 377939 application/pdf c3acac76395a8d68423dcc7629a5b5768ddebdb47d001e0b328e3e07a94cd45c openAccess Faculté des lettres / Département de langue et de littérature anglaises
