Description

This essay looks at how the 1798 Rebellion was treated in fiction in the two decades that followed. It argues, against the current view, that far from being a subject upon which fiction writers stayed silent, the crisis of 1798 actually served as a spur to the development of Irish fiction, and novelists engaged with the topic almost immediately. The resulting texts provide important insights into the development of Irish fiction at this time, the complex and multifaceted nature of the society out of which these books emerged, and the surprisingly wide range of attitudes towards the Rebellion that existed before the emphasis on historical context and causation encouraged by Walter Scott's Waverley novels. **********
