| Book Description | A growing band of historians, political commentators, and cultural critics has sought to analyse Ireland'past and present in colonial terms. For some, including Irish Republicans, it is the only proper framework for understanding Ireland. Others reject the very use of the colonial label for Ireland's history; while using the term for the present arouses outrage, especially amongst Ulster Unionists. This book evaluates and analyses these controversies, ranging from debates over the ancient and medieval past to those in current literary and postcolonial theory. Scholarly, at times polemical, it is the most comprehensive study of these themes ever to appear, and will undoubtedly stimulate discussion for years to come. |
| Editorial Review | Ireland and Empire is an entertaining historiographical essay, which is timely, coherent and argumentative. * Edward Cavanagh, Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History * This is a rich book, which will create debate and probably heated argument. It is one of those books whose conclusions many will disagree with but which raises such fundamental questions about Anglo-Irish relations over the centuries, that even critics will applaud Stephen Howe for undertaking to write it * Jonathan Moore, Irish Post * A lucid and acute analysis of the various debates about colonialism and Ireland ... In identifying and delineating the debate(s), he [Howe] has saved the rest of us a lot of painful and largely unrewarding labour. In addition, he has provided us with some witty scholarly entertainment along the way. What more could we ask? * Irish Historical Studies * |
