The expression "our own language" illustrates the significance of
the Irish language for many among the nationalist community in
Northern Ireland. They regard the neglect of the language by
unionist administrations since the 1920s as another part of the
attempted Anglicization of Ireland, and part of the justification
for their continued opposition to the union. As a result, Irish has
come to be seen as a symbol of resistance, anti-Britishness,
liberation and nationalism. This book examines the symbolic
significance of the Irish language.
