This thesis explores the depiction of working-class Dublin in fiction and plays from
1954 to 2004. It examines how proletarian identity is depicted in this body of
writing, the common themes and ideas it sustains, and what these parallels
contribute to the understanding of Irish literature and culture. Chapter 1 outlines
Sean O'Casey's considerable influence on later writers of the working class.
