Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume views Ireland's place in the world, from the 18th century to the present, from a number of methodological perspectives. Deploying diverse sources - including interviews, press reports, convict records, wills, letters, diaries and social media - and spanning the globe from Ireland itself to Scotland, Wales, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the British Empire more broadly - the volume explores issues such as landlordism, slavery, convicts, policing, loyalism, nationalism, Orangeism, sectarianism, Catholic print culture, politics, and emotion, to provide a panoramic and also quite specific picture of the Irish diaspora.
