ISBN: 9783034302661 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 299 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In December 1921 the Anglo-Irish Treaty was signed, which led to the creation of the Irish Free State and the partition of Ireland the following year. The consequences of that attempt to reconcile the conflicting demands of republicans and unionists alike have dictated the course of Anglo-Irish relations ever since. This book explores how the reception of Irish plays staged in theatres in London s West End serves as a barometer not only of the state of relations between Great Britain and Ireland, but also of the health of the British and Irish theatres respectively.
For each of the eight... In December 1921 the Anglo-Irish Treaty was signed, which led to the creation of the Irish Free State and the partition of Ireland the following year....

The Gun and Irish Politics: Examining National History in Neil Jordan's 'Michael Collins'
ISBN: 9783039118885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In the 1990s, Irish society was changing and becoming increasingly international due to the rise of the Celtic Tiger . At the same time, the ongoing peace process in Northern Ireland also fuelled debates on the definition of Irishness, which in turn seemed to call for a critical examination of the birth of the Irish State, as well as a rethinking and re-assessment of the nationalist past. Neil Jordan s Michael Collins (1996), the most commercially successful and talked-about Irish film of the 1990s, was a timely contributor to this process. In providing a large-scale representation of...

Culture War: Conflict, Commemoration and the Contemporary Abbey Theatre
ISBN: 9783034301374 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Irish National Theatre Society began its centenary in 2004 with ambitious theatrical events at home and abroad. By the end of the year, however, the company was close to financial ruin, culminating in its dissolution and subsequent reestablishment. The financial crisis was only one element of controversy during the centenary year. During this period, the remit of the Abbey Theatre as a house for the performance of Irish identity and new Irish writing was brought into question. While debates unfolded over the artistic and financial crises, many commentators queried the very nature of, or...

Southern Ireland and the Liberation of France: New Perspectives
ISBN: 9783034301909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This collection of essays sets out to correct an injustice to citizens of the Irish Free State, or Twenty-Six Counties, whose contribution to the victory against Nazi Germany in the Second World War has thus far been obscured. The historical facts reveal a divided island of Ireland, in which the volunteers from the South were obliged to fight in a foreign (that is, British) army, navy and air force. Recent research has now placed this contribution on a secure basis of historical and statistical fact for the first time, showing that the total number of Irish dead (more than nine thousand) was...

ISBN: 9783034319225 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The organization of several thousand Irish American men into a military outfit, which then attempted to invade Canada from within the United States, is a significant historical event that remains largely unexplored from an Irish and Irish American perspective.

By taking a fresh look at the Irish foray, the author reveals new aspects to Irish...

New Vocabularies, Old Ideas: Culture, Irishness and the Advertising Industry
ISBN: 9783039119783 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Advertisements are often viewed as indices of cultural change, just as the advertising industry is often imagined as innovative and transformative. Advancing from an alternative position, which borrows much from practice-based research, this book instead highlights the routinisation of practices and representations in advertising. Drawing extensively from his own study, the author uses Irishness to investigate the relationship between cultural symbolism in advertising and the cultural vocabularies of advertising practitioners. While globalisation and immigration to Ireland have putatively...

Stereotypes, Ideology and Foreign Correspondents: German Media Representations of Ireland, 1946-2010
ISBN: 9783034322225 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book examines German media representations of Ireland from 1946 to 2010, from the post-war period to the years of the so-called Celtic Tiger and Ireland's subsequent economic downturn. It charts both the patterns and the inconsistencies in depictions of Ireland in the weekly publications Der Spiegel and Die Zeit, as well as in German cinema. Cultural stereotypes may be employed in the furthering of a problematic cultural essentialism; however, they may also be used to play with readers' or viewers' expectations. They may be juxtaposed with newer cultural... This book examines German media representations of Ireland from 1946 to 2010, from the post-war period to the years of the so-called Celtic Tiger a... |

'Hear My Song': Irish Theatre and Popular Song in the 1950s and 1960s
ISBN: 9783034319157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Arguing that certain song types constitute forms of collective memory, this book explores Irish theatre from the 1950s and 1960s to show that songs provide valuable insights into changes in the popular consciousness. As well as illuminating the performances and reception of the plays, it also challenges orthodox narratives of de Valera's Ireland.

The Mandarin, the Musician and the Mage: T. K. Whitaker, Sean Ó Riada, Thomas Kinsella and the Lessons of Ireland's Mid-Twentieth-Century Revival
ISBN: 9781800795990 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In spite of recession, austerity and pandemics, Ireland has demonstrated an extraordinary degree of resilience, becoming one of the most successful economies in Europe and developing into a society remarkably at ease with itself. This book argues that the seeds of this achievement were sown between the mid-1950s and 1960s, when a Second Irish Revival took place which was comparable to the earlier Celtic Revival of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. At the heart of this revival were three men: T. K. Whitaker, the youthful Secretary of the Department of Finance, Sean O...

'Dancing as If Language No Longer Existed': Dance in Contemporary Irish Drama
ISBN: 9783034318136 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book offers a comprehensive study of the role of dance in a wide range of contemporary Irish plays and argues that dance can be perceived as exemplifying the re-embracement of bodily expression by the local culture. The author approaches this issue from a cultural materialist perspective, demonstrating that dance in twentieth-century Ireland was particularly prone to ideological appropriation and that, consequently, its use in contemporary drama often serves to communicate critical and revisionist approaches to the social, economic and political concerns addressed in these plays. The...

ISBN: 9783034307994 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Irish writers have always been fascinated by the family, sometimes depicting it as a traditional space under threat from external influences, sometimes highlighting the dangers lurking within. More recently, families have been represented as a type of safe haven from a bewildering postmodern world.
