Patrick Pearse, teacher, poet, and one of the executed leaders of
the 1916 Rising has long been a central figure in Irish history.
The book provides a radically new interpretation of Patrick
Pearse's work in education, and examines how his work as a teacher
became a potent political device in pre-independent Ireland. The
book provides a complete account of Pearse's educational work at
St. Enda's school, Dublin where a number of insurgents such as
William Pearse, Thomas McDonagh and Con Colbert taught. The author
draws upon the recollections of past-pupils, employees, descendants
of those who worked with Pearse, founders of schools inspired by
his work - including the descendants of Thomas McSweeny and Louis
Gavan Duffy - and a vast array or primary source material to
provide a comprehensive account of life at St. Enda's and the place
of education within the 'Irish-Ireland' movement and the struggle
for independence.
