This thesis addresses how community was imagined and formed in 19 th century nationalist Ireland for Anglo-Irish authors, Lady Jane and Oscar Wilde. According to Benedict Anderson's influential work in postcolonial approaches, Imagined Communities, nations, and by extension all communities, are based on an imagined sense of commonality. In 19 th century Ireland, nationalists were actively engaged in the attempt to define who could lay claim to the title "Irish." In this process, the nationalist, Protestant, Anglo-Irish often found themselves excluded by prevailing sentiments that desired to characterize Irishness as Catholic and native. For Lady Wilde, these issues were intensified by restrictive gender roles that subordinated women to the passive roles of mother and wife to provide support for men's active participation in republican politics and rebellion. Oscar Wilde, on the other hand, was excluded from acceptance to this community based not just on religious and ethnic grounds, but on the grounds of sexuality and religion. This thesis investigates the ways in which each of these figures revised popular contemporary notions of community to allow for the inclusion of their identities in Lady Wilde's Legends, Charms, and Superstitions, and Oscar Wilde's two books of fairy tales, A House of Pomegranates, and The Happy Prince and Other Tales..
