dc.description.abstract | The paper looks at the allegorical use of intercultural marriage in Irish literature following the 1801 Act of Union, with a specific focus on Owenson’s The Wild Irish Girl and Maturin’s The Milesian Chief. It examines how these national tale novels mirror the Anglo-Irish relationship, employing marriage as an allegory of political and cultural amalgamation. Navigating through historical context, literary techniques, and the depiction of Irish identity, the analysis attempts to illustrate how these works express the intricacies of Irish society in the early nineteenth century. | |
