Produktbeschreibung
Grouped by spatial context—rural, domestic, and urban—the selected texts trace how literature registers extractivism, precarity, and the erosion of social and material certainties across distinct Irish geographies. By emphasizing Ireland’s semi-peripheral position within the global capitalist system, the book reveals how these fictions not only narrate local transformation but are also deeply embedded in planetary dynamics.
The Uncanny as a Method challenges familiar binaries such as realism versus the speculative, national versus global, and center versus periphery. It offers a new way to read literature in times of systemic rupture, contributing to Irish studies, ecocriticism, and world literature by reimagining how fiction can articulate the strange familiarities of global crisis.
