Irish Border Narratives: An International Symposium
On the centenary (1921-2021) of its existence and in the wake of Britain’s political secession from the EU (2016-2021), the political border that divides Ireland has acquired renewed significance within Ireland, in Europe and globally.
In recent criticism, experts from different academic disciplines have analysed the history of the Irish border and Irish borderlands and reflected on its geographical, jural, sociological and cultural representations and implications. The aim of this international and interdisciplinary symposium at the Center for Narrative Research of the University of Wuppertal is to bring these different perspectives on the Irish border into a dialogue.
