This essay, “A Subversive National Tale/Museum: Sydney Owenson’s The Wild Irish Girl,” revisits Owenson’s The Wild Irish Girl: A National Tale (1806) by exploring the multifaceted implications of the museum as a metaphor for three levels of space in and outside the novel: fictional space, textual space, and real-life space. Owenson’s novel features the fictional castle of lnismore, the main setting of the novel, as a museum of Irish nationalism that demonstrates the fall of Horatio who represents British colonizers. In the castle, Horatio is entrapped and changed from a colonizing subject to an object under the influence of his love for Glorvina, which he first has a hard time admitting and misinterprets as her witchcraft. Horatio is also objectified and textualized by two museological texts- Glorvina’s writing of his name on the frame of her portrait and Owenson’s writing, that is, the novel itself. Furthermore, Owenson made use of the real-life space of fashionable English salons in order to self-fashion the museological display of herself as ‘the Wild Irish Girl.’ Although her first experience being displayed as Glorvina was against her intention, she soon adapted that experience into her self-presentations. Owenson sought to find the potential subversive power of these three different but interrelated museological spaces and appropriated them as tools to attract, reform, and edify English readers; subvert their imperial and patriarchal gaze on her and her novel; and transform them from dominant colonizers into Irish sympathizers who sincerely love Irish culture and history, just as Glorvina does to Horatio in the novel.
