Literature, as Joyce tells us through the character of Stephen Dedalus, 'is the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'. Written over a seven-year period, from 1914 to 1921, Ulysses has survived bowderlization, legal action and bitter controversy. An undisputed modernist classic, its ceaseless verbal inventiveness and astonishingly wide-ranging allusions confirm its standing as an ...

One of the major figures in the modern Irish poetic canon, Patrick Kavanagh (1904-67) released Anglo-Irish verse from its prolonged obsession with history, ethnicity and national politics. Instead his poetry, written in an uninhibited vernacular style, focuses on closely observed images of rural life, where 'ordinary things wear lovely wings'. This selection ranges from Kavanagh's ...

Written at the end of the World War II, this novel mourns the passing of the aristocratic world which Waugh knew in his youth and recalls the sensuous pleasures denied him by the austerities of war. In so doing, it provides a study of the conflict between the demands of religion and of the flesh.
