Cultural memory has in recent years been taken up with enthusiasm
across the domain of area studies and the humanities generally.
Ireland, with its trauma-filled history and huge global diaspora,
presents an ideal subject for work in this vein. This series as a
whole seeks to construct a landscape of cultural memory in Ireland,
focusing in particular on how cognitive capacity for memory might
influence the formation of cultural memory and how that cultural
memory shifts over time. Volume 3 focuses on the impact of the
Famine and the Troubles on the formation and study of Irish
cultural memory. Topics considered include hunger strikes,
monuments to the Famine, trauma and the politics of memory in the
Irish peace process, and Ulster Loyalist battles in the
twenty-first century. Gathering the work of leading scholars such
as Margaret Kelleher, Joseph Lennon, David Lloyd, Joseph Valente,
and Gerald Dawe, this collection is an essential contribution to
the field of Irish studies.
