The Making of Modern Irish History - Revisionism and the Revisionist Controversy (Paperback)

Revisionism has been an important issue in Irish history for several years, as more or less partisan accounts of the Irish past have been rewritten and 'rescued' by journalists and historians of different political persuasions. This text book brings together distinguished historians from Ireland. Each contributor tackles a key question, issue or event in Irish history and:
* examines its historiography
* assesses the context of new interpretations
* considers the strengths and weaknesses of revisionist ideas
* offers their own interpretation

The introduction outlines the history of the revisionist controversy and places Ireland within a historical and contemporary context.
