Dublin Literary Revival

The Dublin Literary Revival was a cultural movement in early 20th-century Ireland that revitalized interest in Irish history, language, and folklore through literature. It aimed to celebrate Ireland’s unique identity by encouraging writers to draw inspiration from Irish traditions, myths, and landscapes. Key figures like W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory founded organizations such as the Irish Literary Revival to promote Irish culture and create a sense of national pride. This movement contributed significantly to Ireland’s literary heritage and helped establish a distinctive Irish voice in modern literature.
