This article proffers a comparative reading of W. B. Yeats and William Faulkner through the lens of cultural in-betweenness. In accordance with the ambiguities cutting back and forth between colonizer and colonized, and between indigenizing and Anglicizing of language, Yeats’s strained relationship with the Protestant Anglo-Irish and the Catholic Irish is deeply embedded within the Yeatsian sense of uncertainty and dual allegiances. On the other side, Faulkner’s oeuvre captures the ways in which the nation/south imaginative construct and the projection of residual coloniality onto the sign of the South disrupt the conceptual boundaries of center and periphery, colonizing and colonized, and essentialist and hybrid, thereby providing a glimpse of multiple definition of the US south. By taking a detour of a comparative reading as such, this article examines how Yeats and Faulkner redefine the notions of Irishness and southernness by putting their own cultural in-betweenness to the creative use.
Abstract
This article proffers a comparative reading of W. B. Yeats and William Faulkner through the lens of cultural in-betweenness. In accordance with the ambiguities cutting back and forth between colonizer and colonized, and between indigenizing and Anglicizing of language, Yeats’s strained relationship with the Protestant Anglo-Irish and the Catholic Irish is deeply embedded within the Yeatsian sense of uncertainty and dual allegiances. On the other side, Faulkner’s oeuvre captures the ways in which the nation/south imaginative construct and the projection of residual coloniality onto the sign of the South disrupt the conceptual boundaries of center and periphery, colonizing and colonized, and essentialist and hybrid, thereby providing a glimpse of multiple definition of the US south. By taking a detour of a comparative reading as such, this article examines how Yeats and Faulkner redefine the notions of Irishness and southernness by putting their own cultural in-betweenness to the creative use.
