| Research Abstract |
Studying the culture, history and society of Northern Ireland widely and deeply especially since the partition of Ireland in 1921, I have made analysis and comments on some aspects of poetic imagination of Northern Ireland such as literary works and murals for five years. I have published books and papers: Murals in Northern Irelandand essays on representative poets in Northern Ireland or Ulster (Samuel Ferguson and Louis MacNeice). In addition, I have examined the present situation of the ‘Troubles’through the paper on the problem of the interfaces, flashpoints between Protestant and Catholic communities, in Northern Ireland. I am sure that my study and research focused on Northern Ireland will give many hints to those on the problems of post-colonialism, nationalism, minorities and so on in other conflict areas in the modern world
