内容説明

This book focuses on the historical and current place of religion in the Irish education system from the perspective of children's rights and citizenship. It offers a critical analysis of the political, cultural and social forces that have shaped the system, looking at how the denominational model has been adapted to increased religious and cultural diversity in Irish society and showing that recent changes have failed to address persistent discrimination and the absence of respect for freedom of conscience. It relates current debates on the denominational system and the role of the State in education to competing narratives of national identity that reflect nationalist-communitarian or republican political outlooks. This book will be essential reading for students and researchers in the fields of education policy and Church/State relations in Ireland and will also engage non-academic audiences with an interest or involvement in Irish education. -- .

内容説明

Provides a grouping of Spanish-American short stories written by women, emphasizing their differences as much as their similarities. Bombal's "La historia de Maria Griselda" delves into the family tensions found in a country house in southern Chile. Somers' mordant, black humour is present in "El derrumbiento", and "Leccion de cocina" is a humorous but pessimistic account of the profound changes that marriage demands from the Mexican middle-class woman. The texts are preceded by an introduction to Spanish-American women's writing and substantial analyses of the stories from a predominantly feminist perspective.
