Drawing on a variety of disciplinary and theoretical approaches, this impressive collection of essays makes an innovative contribution to three areas of current, and often contentious, debate within Irish studies.

Tackling issues such as historiography, nationalism, postcoloniality, traumatic remembering, gender identity and the politics of space, the book explores some of the issues that have shaped debates surrounding Irish history, culture and identities.

New and under-represented areas of critical concern are brought to the fore with chapters on: revisionism eighteenth century Protestant 'patriotism' the famine the legacy of Oscar Wilde cinematic representations of Northern Ireland women in politics and in prisons community activism in Derry women dramatists and poets.
