Bernard Shaw occupies an unusual position in relation to Irish literature – his bona fides as a major world literary figure are acknowledged but his importance to Ireland remains ambiguous. Shaw himself admitted his resistance to narrow views of national identity: ‘I am a tolerably good European in the Nietzschean sense, but a very bad Irishman in the Sinn Fein or Chosen People sense’. Yet because of how he was influenced by and celebrated writers from elsewhere and his successful determination to leave his imprint on and to change the direction of global culture, Shaw is a fascinating case study for the myriad manners and processes by which the Irish writer joins the currents of world literature. This essay argues that Shaw's place in world literature has been misunderstood and seeks to reconsider how both Shaw and other Irish writers have been conceptualized in this context.

The essay focuses on the idea of sacrality as it manifests itself in the poetry of Moya Cannon. It is argued that her poems espouse an ecocentric ethic through fostering a sense of nature's sacredness that is, however, by no means limited to a monotheistic view such as that promoted by Christianity. Instead, the sacred that Cannon explores in her work is characterized by an acceptance of a plurality of practices of piety and an attitude of wonder at the mysterious grace of nature, even in its most minute manifestations.

This article argues that W. B. Yeats uses his early novel John Sherman (1891) to identify and interrogate a non-national model of poetry he newly conceived to be global in its significance. Previously Yeats had attacked Ireland's ‘West Britons’ for seeking to emulate the Anglocentric critical standards set by Matthew Arnold, and so ignoring the beauty and truths of their supposedly provincial homeland. Such art of the ‘critical’ rather than ‘creative imagination’, as typified for Yeats by the minor English poet William Watson, is dramatized in the overaestheticized meditations of the character William Howard from John Sherman. As Howard's ruminations on the Irish landscape proceed, however, his critical spirit develops from the cautious, Anglocentric anti-nativism of Watson's Arnoldian ‘scholar poet’ into the iconoclasm of Oscar Wilde's critic-artist. More radical in his intellectual ambitions and truly extra-national in his affiliations, Howard is galvanized to adopt this new, cosmopolitan attitude by the dispersed forces of technological modernization that had reached Ireland's western seaboard. In reaction to the all-pervasive urban lighting that stimulates Howard's worldly reflections, Yeats's gaze turns inward in the novel's poetic counterpart, seeking to locate the grounds of the Irish creative imagination in the occult dark of Innisfree.
