Southern Ireland and the Liberation of France: New Perspectives
ISBN: 9783034301909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

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 (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

ISBN: 9783034319225 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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. This study offers a fuller exploration of the details behind the Fenian invasion, asking why Irish immigrants were motivated to shape American international policy and examining the ways in which the Fenians defined identity as a transnational phenomenon. By taking a fresh look at the Irish foray, the author reveals new aspects to Irish...

ISBN: 9783034302661 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 299 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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 (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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 (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

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 (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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... |

Beyond Ireland: Encounters Across Cultures

This collection looks beyond Ireland metaphorically as well as geographically, moving beyond nationalism towards the culturally diverse, beyond a bilingual Ireland to a polyvocal one, beyond the imagined community towards a virtual one, beyond a territorial Ireland to an excentric one. The focus is on outsiders, ranging from Colm Toibin s subversion of establishment norms to Paul Muldoon s immersion in Jewish discourse to John Banville s extensions of the parameters of Irishness to the Lass of Aughrim finding a new role through her exclusion from the domestic hearth. The contributors to the...

From our homes to our houses of government, from our schoolyards to our stadia, from our galleries to our gable walls, folklore is not only preserved but continues to be reimagined in all aspects of everyday life in Ireland. In the twenty-first century, the traditions of Irish folklore are engaged in a constant process of regeneration, where the old and the new, the oral, the textual and the visual intermingle. However, while the first life of Irish folklore has amassed a vast literature, what has attracted less attention is its second life the variety of ways in which traditions have been...

Irish women flourished in the publishing world at the turn of the twentieth century, and a number of the most popular and prolific of these authors chose to live and work in Britain.

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 (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

Mother/Country: Politics of the Personal in the Fiction of Colm Tóibín
ISBN: 9783034307536 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This original and engaging study explores the way in which Colm Toibin repeatedly identifies and disrupts the boundaries between personal and political or social histories in his fiction. Through this collapsing of boundaries, he examines the cost of broader political exclusions and considers how personal and political narratives shape individual subjects.
Each of Toibin s novels is comprehensively addressed here, as are his non-fiction works, reviews, plays, short stories, and some as-yet-unpublished work. The book situates Toibin not only within his contemporary literary milieu, but...
