The enormous influence of modern Irish literature -from Swift to Beckett, to Wilde, Shaw and Joyce is central to modern and contemporary literature. Inventing Ireland, with a great learning wisdom and humor, puts Irish literature since the late eighteenth century until the late twentieth century, in the context of socio-political and historical. Ireland Declan Kiberd says - was the first village decolonizing Anglophone in the twentieth century, so it's logical to use ideas from postcolonial studies, which are genuinely illuminating. This book, brilliant and entertaining as , became an essential text for understanding and study of Irish literature and how a culture invented a nation.
In recognition of the memorial essay that became Inventing Ireland, Declan Kiberd received Oscar Wilde for literary achievements and the award for best nonfiction book issued by the Irish Times .
