Summary "Ireland in Fiction: A Guide to Irish Novels, Tales, Romances, and Folk-lore" by Stephen J. Brown, S.J. is a bibliographic guide outlining Irish fiction written in the early 20th century. The work is essentially a detailed compilation of Irish novels and stories, focusing on their authors and thematic classification, offering readers a structured resource to understand the breadth of Irish literature, especially in context to novels, folktales, romances, and folklore. The opening of the guide introduces its purpose and contrasts it with Brown's previous work, "A Reader's Guide to Irish Fiction." It establishes a new alphabetical arrangement of authors, a doubled catalog of texts, and an intention for clarity over subjective opinion. Brown emphasizes that this guide is meant to inform rather than promote certain works, providing descriptive notes and comprehensive indices to help users navigate the landscape of Irish fiction effectively. It also notes the omission of Irish language works, highlighting the complexity of Irish literary heritage. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
