Cartographers of Desire: Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill Versus the Love Canon in Irish Poetry

Abstract

"I am interested in the ways Ní Dhomhnaill calls into question the procedures of representation implemented by hegemonic traditions; in the strategies she uses to reshape an entire territory on which images circulate; in Irish psychohistoric sources she draws on; and in her construction of new, reterritorialized discursive cartograms."
