dc.description.abstract | The eighteenth century was a period when ambitious Irish dramatists, particularly
those based in London, deployed satire as a means of publicly displaying Irish
improvement and Enlightenment. The Stage Irishman evolved over the period to
become less an object than a tool of satire. Central to this process was new
historiographical work by Irish historians that provided an ideological basis for this
new drama. The Declaratory Act (1720) provoked Irish patriot writers; the failed
Jacobite Rebellion (1745) offered them an opportunity to denigrate the Scottish to
further Irish claims of Celtic authenticity; and the Irish rebellion (1798) muted the
sense of possibility around the politics of national identity and satire. | en |
