Summary

Irish poetry has often inhabited a condition of ontological doubleness. Existing between two languages allows for both stereophonic and transgressive qualities not available on the monoglot plane. The poetry of Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, best known from bilingually presented volumes, has benefited hugely from this paradigm, as it enters into dialogue with a host of translators including Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, Medbh McGuckian and Paul Muldoon. Permeability and slipping across boundaries becomes an enabling aesthetic. The work of Celia de Fréine too engages with translation to destabilise hierarchical binaries, and challenge deep-rooted concepts of originals and translations in the reception of the Irish poem. The work of younger poets, such as Doireann Ní Ghríofa, Ailbhe Ní Ghearbhuigh, and Aifric Mac Aodha, builds on the achievements of these writers, while engaging with the rapidly changing linguistic environment (and poetic culture) of Ireland today.
