Ó Dúill, Micheál
Three twentieth-century novelists of rural life

Friedrich Griese, Pádhraic Óg Ó Conaire, and Maurice Genevoix.

Three authors have been chosen: Griese, famous in the 'Blood and Soil' era, remained active on the German literary scene into the 1970s; the nationalism of Ó Conaire's early works gives way to a void in the face of Irish independence; and, despite its claims of universality, Genevoix's writing is shown to remain firmly entrenched in a nationalist France. These phenomena are detailed, discussed, and compared with previous research findings on the rural novel. 195 Seiten, broschiert (Europäische Hochschulschriften.
