AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This essay surveys the viewpoints of selected Irish-Australian writers: the anthologists Bill Wannan, Vincent Woods and Colleen Burke; then Bernard O’Dowd, Brian Elliott, Tom Inglis Moore, Gerard Windsor, Vincent Buckley, Frank Molloy, Dymphna Lonergan and Patrick Morgan. These writers provide evidence that an ocean of Irish-Australian literature exists; that the literary forms of ballad and song were important to earlier generations; and several of them claim that Irish-Australian writers have played a major role in the development of Australian literature. Notes on publications in the Irish language and on the Irish-Scots link are included. The selected bibliographic notes in this essay contribute to the systematic study needed to reverse the neglect of Irish-Australian literature in major forums.'
