Haunted English: The Celtic Fringe, the British Empire, and De-Anglicization
28
 
 
Haunted English: The Celtic Fringe, the British Empire, and De-AnglicizationHaunted English explores the role of language in colonization and decolonization by examining how Anglo-Celtic modernists W. B. Yeats, Hugh MacDiarmid, and Marianne Moore "de-Anglicize" their literary vernaculars. Laura O'Connor demonstrates how the poets' struggles with and through the colonial tongue are discernible in their signature styles, using aspects of those styles to theorize the dynamics of linguistic imperialism -- as both a distinct process and an integral part of cultural imperialism.
