Irish Anglican Literature and Drama Hybridity and Discord

“The compact nature of this work is suitable for scholars and readers who already have a basis in Irish studies … . it is Clare’s research and cogent writing style that shine through, further solidifying this work as an important contribution to the ongoing scholarship concerning the necessary inclusion of Anglo-Irish writers in the canon, largely thanks to the ‘strength of the Irish identities of these same writers’ … .” (Aileen R. Ruane, SHAW The Journal of Bernard Shaw Studies, Vol. 42 (1), 2022)



“David Clare’s book on the Irish Anglican tradition in writing and theatre history is a concise, accessible, and effectively argued work … . this excellent and concise study equips us with an insightful account of the historical and cultural ambiguities that imbue our present.” (Mike Griffin, Estudios Irlandeses, Vol. 17, 2022)
