dc.subjectThis thesis argues that Dante Alighieri’s Inferno is used by several Irish authors from the late nineteenth century onwards as a memorial space for (a forgotten) Irish history. The literature that engages with Dante in this way demonstrates the ongoing hurt that stems from colonial Ireland. I analyse the works of poets Eavan Boland and Seamus Heaney, as well as the music of Andrew Hozier-Byrne and examine how these works build on each other to generate the memory site of Dante's Underworld.
