Polish Migration Writing in Britain and Ireland since 2004

Abstract

This thesis comprises seven chapters whose main aim is to catalogue Polish migration writing in Britain and Ireland from 2004 to 2024 and analyse it in literary, social and historical contexts, with two objectives in mind. Firstly, to examine how the post-EU-accession migration has influenced the writing of Polish migrants, and secondly, to explore the new insights this writing provides in the fields of literary and migration studies.
