Remembering the Year of the French is a model of historical
achievement, moving deftly between the study of historical events -
the failed French invasion of the West of Ireland in 1798 - and
folkloric representations of those events. Delving into the folk
history found in Ireland's archives and rich oral traditions, Guy
Beiner reveals alternate visions of the Irish past and brings into
focus the vernacular histories, folk commemorative practices, and
negotiations of memory that had gone largely unnoticed by
historians. Though his focus is 1798, his work is also a
comprehensive study of Irish folk history and of grassroots social
memory.
