Extractions: Power and the Individual in Literature Countless works of fiction have of course dealt with social injustice and the abuse of power. European novelists of the nineteenth century seem to have been particularly aware of the societal origins of interpersonal strife and personal distress: money and power (in particular their lack) are the constant preoccupation of most of their fictional characters. Twentieth century literature, on the other hand, is far more often concerned (no doubt thanks in part to Freud) with 'psychology' and 'inner worlds'. Relatively few writers of any era, however, attempt to go beyond the immediacy of their characters' experience and actions (in my terms 'proximal' considerations) to try to expose the more 'distal' roots of the feelings and events they describe. The plot is usually played out in the immediate relations with each other of the characters, and solutions to social predicaments will be achieved (or not) through 'relationships'. The redeeming power of love is all too often seen as the only hope (even where it fails, as in some of the twentieth century dystopias like Nineteen-Eighty-Four ). Perhaps 'distal' preoccupations simply don't fit with art: certainly when writers do try to lengthen their perspective to take in the origins of unhappiness they do so often rather at the expense of artistic merit. Following are examples of some more or less successful attempts to open up just such a perspective.

NOTE, not claimed as Irish in DIW. Cahal L. Dallat Fortnight 330, reviewing Dermot Bolger, ed., Ireland in Exile Ragged Trousered Philosophers ; Dallat comments that Noonan/Tressell was, of course one of those who hid his roots (just one fleeting mention of Ireland, a reference to industrial action in Belfast, in the whole work) and wrote his bitterly socialists tract about English society, a strange evasion since Cobbett, Mrx, and Engels all felt the condition of Ireland to be a central social issue in England. Brian Power , review of Robert Tressell, The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists Books Ireland (March 2003): `[ ] the novel highlights the hypocrisy of Christians as much as others who expoitled their fellows for personal gain. Surprisingly, however, it is not bitter, nor is it anti-religious. This is because the narrator is a character of sincere and passionate believs whose concern for others is as great as that for his own wife and family. After describing lay-offs, evictions, a culpabley avoidable fatal accident at work, a grotesque funeral, a hilarious "beano", family illness and break-up, and some kind and charitable acts, the books on a determinedly optimistic note. In a sentimental and touching crescendo, the narrator and author succeed in transcending [imminent] personal tragedy in order to point towards the prospect of a brighter social future for everyone.
