| Résumé : | This essay raises one of the crucial and recurring issues in Irish history, the confrontation between art and politics, beginning with the warning by F.S.L. Lyons that there has always been an inevitable collision between the two opposing forces, a political or revolutionary movement and a literary or renaissance movement. According to the view of historians like Lyons and Foster, that collision has usually led to a condition of anarchy. According to the view of writers like Yeats, Synge, Joyce and O'Casey, there is a redemptive element in the culture of art; and in the words of Seamus Heaney, the cause of the dangerous anarchy arises from "the quarrel between free creative imagination and the constraints of religious, political, and domestic obligations". This essay examines the implications of those conflicting obligations |
