The experience of the Irish abroad has been a vibrant and exciting
area of scholarly research in recent years. Most of the research
has chronicled the political, military, and religious experience of
Irish men and women who left Ireland in the 17th and 18th
centuries. This book complements that research by focusing on the
experience of meeting new cultures as the emigrants ventured across
Europe. Included in the themes covered are the impact of the new
world that they discovered on their language, their ways of
practicing scholarship, the impact of print on a predominantly oral
culture, and their encounter with towns by those who came from an
overwhelmingly rural background. Deploying a wide range of new
evidence, these essays open up questions of cultural encounter that
have not been explored hitherto. This is the fifth volume in the
Irish in Europe series and, like its predecessors, opens new
perspectives on the experience of the Irish abroad in the early
modern world. (Series: Irish in Europe - Vol. 5)
