Sinopsis

This comparative literature study explores how writers from across Ireland andáLatin America have, both in parallel and in concert, deployed symbolicárepresentations of the dead in their various anti-colonial projects. In contrast toáthe ghosts and revenants that haunt English and Anglo-American letters-whereáthey are largely either monstrous horrors or illusory frauds-the dead in theseáIrish/Latinx archives can serve as potential allies, repositories of historicalágrievances, recorders of silenced voices, and disruptors of neocolonial discourse.
