This book is the first sustained attempt to incorporate critical
scholarship and thought at the cutting edge of contemporary
geography, history and archaeology into the burgeoning field of
Irish heritage studies. It seeks to illustrate the validity of
multiple depictions of the Irish past, showing how scrutiny of
heritage practices and meanings is so essential for illuminating
our understanding of the present. Examining Ireland's heritages
from a critical perspective that celebrates notions of
heterogeneity and uniqueness, the distinguished contributors to
this book scrutinise the multiplicity of complex relations between
heritage, history, memory, commemoration, economy, and cultural
identity within various historical, geographical and archaeological
contexts. Using several examples and case studies, this book raises
issues not only from a uniquely Irish perspective, but also
investigates the memorialisation and marketing of the Irish past in
overseas locations such as the USA and Australia.
