Abstract
Kyoung-sook KimThis essay analyzes "The Dead" as a meta-historiography, a methodological historiography about historiographies, questioning how to historicize the past and memories. "The Dead," the coda of Dubliners, seems to represent quite well, however allegorically, both how memories are edited according to a historiographer's desire to make a coherent narrative and how subaltern memories and historiographies dismantle collective, homogenized official histories.First of all, this article reads Gabriel as an official historiographer. For him the past exists only as a pretext to set off the glorious present and future. Second, Miss Ivors personifies the Irish cultural nationalists' obsession with the mystified, romanticized past. In contrast, Gretta's memory of Michael Furey represents the troubled, subaltern memory, which has been repressed and forgotten. This reading suggests how a personal past crisscrosses and even forms the particularized cogs of the national past. This reading of Furey's ghost-memory as an allegory of the repressed, subaltern history of Ireland also hinges upon a Joycean narration of Dublin as a "liminal" space in which the subaltern memories return and disrupt official historiographies.
