Explored the new wave of prosperity in Irish literature since the end of the 20th century, the new changes in the economic, cultural, and political fields, and the reassessment of Irish history and the diaspora population. Ireland experienced rapid economic development during the 'Celtic Tiger' period, increased cultural confidence, and made progress in the Northern Ireland peace process. The commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Great Famine in 1995 and the speech by the first female President Robinson marked the emphasis on the history of dispersal and the rewriting of national identity. Dispersion research has become an emerging academic field, and the Irish literary community has established the academic journal "Dispersion" and published several foundational theoretical works. Dispersed narrative plays an important role in contemporary Irish literature, presenting new trends such as individual specificity, subjectivity, highlighting gender dimensions, and emotional narrative patterns. The article takes four contemporary works with the United States as the host country as examples to analyze the new trend of transnational diaspora narrative in contemporary Ireland, showcasing the dynamic, three-dimensional, and diversified nature of the Irish diaspora scroll.

From Victims to Contributors: The New Subject of Dispersed Narratives

Cohen classified dispersed groups into multiple types, including victims, laborers, etc., and proposed that dispersion patterns can be divided into four stages and five types. Irish people are classified as' victims', and their diaspora narrative tradition emphasizes experiences such as slavery and exile. After the 1960s and 1970s, the meaning of diaspora expanded to include Africans, Armenians, and others. After the failure of the Irish uprising in 1798, nationalist exiles began to spread the narrative that "Irish immigrants were victims of political persecution". The Great Famine in Ireland in the mid-19th century further strengthened this cultural impression. However, in contemporary neo diaspora narratives, writers in the post nationalist era have weakened the historical burden of ethnic persecution and turned to the growth and value realization of immigrant individuals. The collective memory of the Great Famine is retold, no longer only pointing to national tragedy, but imagined as the dedication and adaptation of Irish people in a foreign land. For example, in McCain's "Across the Atlantic," the story of Dublin maid Lily portrays the difficult survival and tenacious rooting of Irish immigrants in the United States. McCotter's "Angela's Ashes" uses the protagonist's impoverished childhood and hunger as a cultural symbol to emphasize the similarities between Ireland and the United States, challenging the binary opposition in traditional diaspora discourse. In Barry's' Endless Days', hunger becomes a connecting bond that transcends political, racial, and geographical boundaries, showcasing the similar relationship between the Irish and American survival grounds. These works weaken the specific historical and political atmosphere associated with the Great Famine, while preserving the sense of hunger as a new way of using it as a cultural symbol of famine.

Breaking the Silence: The Power of Minority Voices and Emotions

Contemporary Irish writers pay more attention to the daily emotional experiences of dispersed populations in their transnational narrative, which echoes the shift of Irish literary circles from grand narratives to everyday topics. This transformation is reflected in the in-depth exploration of family relationships and intimate feelings among immigrant groups, as well as the voice of minority groups such as women and homosexuals. Novels such as "Brooklyn," "Twilight," "On the Other Side of Canaan," and "The Green Road" tend to reassess Ireland's immigrant cultural identity, particularly the female experience. These works showcase the autonomy and inner emotions of female immigrants through delicate descriptions, breaking away from the traditional mode of "tragic memoirs".

Cross border Irishness: The Potential for Shaping Cross Ethnic Communities

The new trend of contemporary Irish diaspora narrative explores the concept of "transnational Irishness" that transcends national borders, emphasizing the third space of cultural hybridity, where cultural significance is open to translation and rejects holistic interpretation. Baba believes that the emotional experiences of marginalized groups have changed their understanding of culture, while Stoddard proposed a definition of transnational Irish sexuality that emphasizes internationalization and multiculturalism, embracing immigration and differences. Dispersed writers such as Tobin deconstructed the binary opposition between belonging and unfamiliarity in "Brooklyn," McCain broke down geographical and racial boundaries in "Across the Atlantic," and Barry demonstrated the construction of a cross ethnic spiritual community in "Endless Days. These works abandon traditional victim narratives, challenge mainstream discourse, emphasize the importance of gender in identity construction, truthfully depict the emotional reactions and mental trauma of immigrant individuals, and demonstrate their spiritual strength. Cross border Irish sexuality has become a new direction for depicting the ethnic characteristics of Ireland, reshaping the cultural role of the national community.
