People from the British and Irish Isles have, for centuries,
migrated to all corners of the globe.Wherever they went, the
English, Irish, Scots, Welsh, and and even sub-national,
supra-regional groups like the Cornish, co-mingled, blended and
blurred. Yet while they gradually integrated into new lives in
far-flung places, British and Irish Isle emigrants often maintained
elements of their distinctive national cultures, which is an
important foundation of diasporas. Within this wider context, this
volume seeks to explore the nature and characteristics of the
British and Irish diasporas, stressing their varying origins and
evolution, the developing attachments to them, and the differences
in each nation's recognition of their own diaspora. The volume thus
offers the first integrated study of the formation of diasporas
from the islands of Ireland and Britain, with a particular view to
scrutinizing the similarities, differences, tensions and
possibilities of this approach. -- .
