Abstract:
This study reads the Semitic discourse in five modern Irish novels – Francis Stuart's Black List Section H (1971), Robert MacLiam Wilson's Manfred's Pain (1992), Robert Welch's Groundwork (1997), Jennifer Johnston's This is Not a Novel (2002), and John Banville's Shroud (2002) – for what it tells us about the cultural identity of modern Ireland, and for what it reveals of the psychohistory, and even the psychopathology, of Irishness hidden in these representations. The span of five novels allows some demonstration, first, of the ambivalence, rather than overt hostility or unqualified identification, which characterises this writing; and, second, of the striking variety and heterogeneity in the representation of ‘the Jew’ in contemporary Irish writing. Such unpredictability and contradictoriness in the construction of Jewish racial difference challenges or threatens both the national discourse which seeks to exert control over the unmanageable ‘reality’ of Ireland in terms of fixity, certainty, centredness, homogeneity, and the transcendent discourse of liberal universalism. That is, these novelists, in demonstrating the impossibility of fixing the indeterminate Jew as one thing or the other, reflect a more general crisis of representation, not only for the nation (Welch, Johnston), and the individual (Wilson, Stuart), but for epistemology itself (Banville).

Abstract:
Jennifer Johnston, a contemporary Irish novelist, has written nine novels thus far encompassing a wide thematic range. While her protagonists include both male and female, in the three novels, The Old Jest, The Christmas Tree, and The Invisible Worm we witness the emergence of a new kind of heroine: the female Bildungsroman protagonist. I begin my study with a discussion of the traditional Bildungsroman as a male project, which traces the growth and self-development of an adolescent as he approaches maturity. A reformulation is then established allowing for a female version of the genre while differentiating between stories of the failure of development, such as Jane Eyre, and Johnston's stories where development is realized. I propose to demonstrate how Johnston's works exemplify the Bildungsroman form and also explore questions relevant to female development such as the protagonist's relationship to work, to love, to family, to tradition, and to writing.

Abstract:
Les romans de Jennifer Johnston ont souvent pour point de départ l'expérience des habitants de la Big House, mais elle en dresse un portrait contrasté, relatant à la fois l'intimité et l'identité fragilisée de cette communauté. Ses protagonistes tentent de reconstruire un " moi " isolé et brisé par les tragédies et les deuils liés à la disparition des Big Houses, à l'émergence de la République, ou simplement les divisions d'origine sociales ou religieuses. Dans cette recherche, la création artistique est privilégiée, ainsi que différents rituels personnels (bains, boissons, écriture d'un journal). La rencontre d'un confident appartenant à l'autre communauté se termine toutefois toujours par une rupture. La reconstruction personnelle fait écho à la construction d'une Irlande nouvelle, et des insertions de chansons ou poèmes permettent à la voix individuelle de rejoindre la voix commune. La place des femmes devient pour Jennifer Johnston une source d'inspiration constante. Des valeurs issues du protestantisme sous-tendent une vision progressiste de la société irlandaise : autonomie du sujet, rejet du conformisme et affirmation du talent individuel. L'œuvre de Johnston présente des déplacements inattendus entre rituels sociaux et rituels personnels
The experiences of the inhabitants of Big Houses are often the starting-point of Jennifer Johnston's novels, but she paints them in a contrasted way, with an insight into this community's intimacy and weakened identity at the same time. Her protagonists struggle to re-build an " I " which has been isolated and broken by tragedies and deaths linked to the disappearance of Big Houses, to the rise of the Republic, or simply to social or religious divisions. In this struggle, artistic creation is put to the forefront, as well as different personal rituals (baths, drinks or writing a journal). The encounter with a confidant from the opposite community, however, always ends in rupture. Personal reconstruction echoes the building of a new Ireland, and insertions of songs or poems enable private voices to join up with common voices. The position of women becomes a constant source of inspiration for Johnston. Values emerging from Protestantism underlie a progressive vision of Irish society : autonomy of the subject, rejection of conformism and affirmation of individual talent. Jennifer Johnston's work offers unexpected displacements between social and personal rituals

Abstract:
This dissertation examines how contemporary Irish women writers dismantle national conceptions linking Irish women to the hearth and home by offering an alternate version of women’s lived experience, which nationalist ideologies have simplified. I consider how these writers define “home”—the domestic, the familiar, the intimate—as complicated by sexuality, exile, and violence. Using Freud’s theory of the uncanny as a lens, I analyze how these writers question established social relations in order to uncover uneasy relationships to self, home, and homeland. In my project, postcolonial theory and transnational feminisms, coupled with trauma theory, facilitate the contextualization of the uncanny as a response to the hybrid identities, dislocations, and effects of violence on gender roles within the nation. The first two chapters examine Edna O’Brien’s later fiction, which unsettles conceptions of the nation by emphasizing the experiences of marginal figures, thereby questioning who belongs within the nation’s borders. The next two chapters on the fiction of Jennifer Johnston and Mary Beckett reveal how the crossing of the public into the private sphere exposes a paradoxical homespace that is both haven and prison for rich Anglo-Irish Dubliners and working-class Catholics in Belfast. The final chapter on Kate O’Riordan’s novels explores issues of exile, alienation, and trauma through a multi-generational lens, revealing how memories of “home” and fraught parent-child relationships at once hinder and facilitate identity formation. In the epilogue, I briefly discuss how contemporary Irish poetry could address the issues raised by the works of fiction examined in my project.

Abstract:
One of the most promising conceptual and empirical breakthroughs to emerge from combined anthropological and demographic thinking is the theory of conjunctural action. Developed in a sequence of articles and books by Jennifer Johnson-Hanks, this approach provides an effective alternative to rationalist decision-making models that have prevailed in population studies over the whole post-War period. Observation and analysis of vital conjunctures show how social, economic, and political differences between groups in society are manifested in individual agency at specific points across the life course, and how people’s behaviour in this way differentiates the many subpopulations making up a society. The approach thus addresses directly two major shortcomings in population research: the need to explain mechanisms underlying the evolution of population heterogeneity, and the dynamics that entrench inequalities. To date, the study of conjunctural action has been addressed chiefly to fertility. In this chapter, we explore how health issues facing older people, their families, and communities are illuminated by this approach, drawing on multi-site, longitudinal ethnographic and demographic research in Indonesia. We begin with the nature of uncertainty and vulnerability at older ages, and how it can be modelled across the life course. This leads to consideration of the dynamic relation between individual action and subpopulation memberships, and how it articulates the compositional demography of status, network, ethnic, and related subpopulation memberships.
