William Carleton, the Writer as Witness

View through CrossRef
William Carleton (1794-1869) fut le premier écrivain irlandais d'importance à sortir du monde des paysans qui parlent le gaélique. Il était fin conteur, maniant également irlandais et anglais, et amalgamant les techniques et les thèmes de sa tradition orale native avec celles de la prose anglaise. Deux contes qui illustrent les mérites de Carleton en tant qu'écrivain sont «The Battle of the Factions» et «Wildgoose Lodge». Le premier est une excellente satire ; le deuxième, un conte «gothique» d'un meurtre tribal et de vengeance. Dans ces deux contes Carleton témoigne du monde violent et politisé de l'Irlande avant la famine. Il a intéressé considérablement les écrivains du Nord, Seamus Heaney, Benedict Kiely and John Montague.
