内容説明

This is a book about Ireland and the Irish. Although not history, it will cover the past extensively, although not politics it will cover north and south, "the troubles" and their background. There will be much about the people, their defining national character and personality, the relationship to Europe, Britain and the US and although not literary criticism, there will be a lot about the arts and literature of the country.

目次

  • History and politics - from colonialism to clientalism
  • modernizing the economy - better late than never
  • the small farmers - much less poverty, but a future full of doubt
  • a swollen metropolis and its struggling regions
  • changes in society and morals - towards a more secure Ireland
  • the Celtic vitality of a populist culture
  • promoting the essence of Irish cultural tradition
  • Ireland and the world - a widening of horizons
  • Northern Ireland - a resilient response to abnormality.
