"Histories of the Irish Future" is an intellectual history of
Ireland seen through the eyes of key individuals who in different
eras sought to influence the country's future. Written by Bryan
Fanning, a leading scholar of modern Irish intellectual history,
the book offers a new, pioneering perspective on the country's
development over the course of the last 400 years. ""In clearly
defined chapters, the book focuses on twelve key figures and places
these alongside many others within the wider social, political,
economic and cultural debates of their times. It thus provides both
a summary and an analysis of the bodies of work of great thinkers -
writers, philosophers, politicians, economists and clergy - from
Jonathan Swift to Fintan O'Toole. The intriguing and original
concept and structure of the book lend themselves to discussion and
group exercises in the classroom. It will appeal to undergraduate
history students taking courses on modern Ireland and Britain as
well as undergraduates in Irish Studies. The author's
interdisciplinary background will also make the book attractive to
undergraduates in related fields such as Cultural Studies,
Philosophy and Political Science.
