This collection begins on the premise that, until recently,
religion has been particularly influential in Ireland in forming a
sense of identity, and in creating certain versions of reality.
History has also been a key component in that process, and the
historical evolution of Christianity has been appropriated by the
main religious denominations - Catholic, Church of Ireland, and
Presbyterian - with a view to reinforcing their own identities.
This book explores the ways in which this occurred; the writing of
religious history, and some of the manifestations of that process,
forms key parts of the collection. Also included are chapters
discussing current and recent attempts to examine the legacy of
collective religious memory - notably in Northern Ireland - based
on projects designed to encourage reflection about the religious
past among both adults and school-children. Readers will find this
collection particularly timely in view of the current 'decade of
commemorations'.
