Abstract
Ed Madden’s contribution to this special issue is a creative response to themes of the Irish gothic, including four poems from his most recent book, A pooka in Arkansas (Word Works, 2023) and a new poem written explicitly for this volume. The poems offer a creative engagement with themes that animate Irish gothic representation (otherness, repression, authenticity, sexuality, threat) in relation to both sexual and ethnic identity, as well as a specific focus on the folkloric figure of the pooka/púca.
Ed Madden对本期特刊的贡献是对爱尔兰哥特式主题的创造性回应，包括他最近的书中的四首诗，阿肯色州的一个pooka (Word Works, 2023)和一首专门为本卷写的新诗。这些诗歌提供了一个创造性的参与，与性和种族身份相关的爱尔兰哥特式表现(他者，压抑，真实性，性，威胁)的主题，以及对民俗人物pooka/púca的特别关注。
期刊介绍：
Since its launch in 1970, the Irish University Review has sought to foster and publish the best scholarly research and critical debate in Irish literary and cultural studies. The first issue contained contributions by Austin Clarke, John Montague, Sean O"Faolain, and Conor Cruise O"Brien, among others. Today, the journal publishes the best literary and cultural criticism by established and emerging scholars in Irish Studies. It is published twice annually, in the Spring and Autumn of each year. The journal is based in University College Dublin, where it was founded in 1970 by Professor Maurice Harmon, who edited the journal from 1970 to 1987. It has subsequently been edited by Professor Christopher Murray (1987-1997).
