To what extent did the Irish disappear from English politics, life
and consciousness following the Anglo-Irish War? Mo Moulton offers
a new perspective on this question through an analysis of the
process by which Ireland and the Irish were redefined in English
culture as a feature of personal life and civil society rather than
a political threat. Considering the Irish as the first postcolonial
minority, they argue that the Irish case demonstrates an English
solution to the larger problem of the collapse of multi-ethnic
empires in the twentieth century. Drawing on an array of new
archival evidence, Moulton discusses the many varieties of
Irishness present in England during the 1920s and 1930s, including
working-class republicans, relocated southern loyalists, and Irish
enthusiasts. The Irish connection was sometimes repressed, but it
was never truly forgotten; this book recovers it in settings as
diverse as literary societies, sabotage campaigns, drinking clubs,
and demonstrations.
