Ireland's history of contested language systems has always been closely linked to its political realities. The rapid decline of Gaelic and the institutional use of Enlightenment English by the British colonial power contributed to the development of the contact language Irish-English in the nineteenth century that came to serve as a relic of the region's tumultuous history. While linguists like Alison Henry, Markku Filppula, John Harris and the Milroys have catalogued Ireland's various language systems and Loreto Todd has traced the influence of Gaelic, Ulster-Scots, Anglo-Irish and Standard English in representations of speech in Irish literature, literary critics have yet to attend to the social, cultural and political significance of representations of Ireland's various language systems in contemporary writing. Language, Identity and Liberation in Contemporary Irish Literature attends to a movement of contemporary Irish writing that considers the significance of the region's tumultuous cultural, social and political history in portrayals of contemporary Ireland's everyday life and speech.
